Abstract

The natives, through centuries, followed indigenous traditional processes
of food and beverage preparations which can be viewed under three
categories, based on the key ingredients used: (i) plant saps/juices; (ii)
lentil, i.e., urid dal; and (iii) crude solar salt. These processes
possibly involve natural spontaneous uncontrolled fermentations, initiated
and sustained by mixed microbial cultures that grow either simultaneously
or succession. These microbial cultures are inherent microflora of coconut
palm sap sur, cashew apple juice nero, lentil urid dal, raw tender mango
tor, and fresh mackerel bangde and additionally the microbes present in
Goan crude salt gaunti mith which is added to the processes as preservative
or flavoring. Unknowingly, the indigenous people particularly of Reinder,
Kazkar, Ramponkar, and other communities have been carrying the food and
beverage preparations, exploiting the potential of inherent microflora to
produce madda feni, caju feni, salted fish, and other indigenous foods. In
this chapter we have documented the ethnic fermented foods and beverages of
Goa.
