Sarson da saag: A winter tradition that satiates hearts

In Punjab, sarson ka saag is more than a winter delicacy. It is a tradition that binds royal kitchens and everyday households, rural hearths and urban dining tables. The authentic slow-cooked saag is often elusive for city dwellers. The absence of traditional chulhas (hearthstone) in urban homes has created a gap that rural women are now bridging with their skills.
