Season One, Summer 2007
Nat Pwe: Burmese Spirits and Flavors
Nats, or ghost like spirits, play a strong role in both the positive and negative events of day-to-day Burmese life. Every August the village of Taung Byone hosts a famous festival (pwe) where Spirit mediums dance the Nats, as people make offerings to stay in their favor. Inspired by this event we have created three recipes with the unique flavors of Burmese cuisine.
