Yomari Punhi is a delightful festival celebrated by the Newar community in Nepal, marking the end of the rice-harvest season. Unique to the Kathmandu Valley, it centres around making and indulging in delicious yomari, a steamed dumpling filled with sweet molasses and sesame seeds. The celebration also signifies gratitude for the plentiful harvest and provides a spiritual touch as devotees worship the goddess Annapurna, guardian of grains. With ancient roots tracing back to 2,000 years ago, Yomari Punhi offers visitors a chance to delve into the heart of Newari culture and relish a gastronomic treat steeped in tradition.
