    Whilst living in the small village of Punjalkatte, Karnataka, South India, a local village worker showed us how to make a "mura" or a traditional grain-storage-container made from straw. This is a smaller version of the muras traditionally used, but the design is the same. Rice kernels are stored in the mura for at least one year before taken out, hand-pounded, and cooked.

      If the grain is stored whilst still in it’s husk, which is the traditional technique, it should last at least a few years if it is kept dry. According to Ayurveda, the grain would be ideally stored in it’s husk for one year before being prepared and consumed. Only during extreme cold weather should the grains be consumed without aging them. Traditionally, after storing the grain for one year, the women of the house would remove a small quantity of grain every day or so. They would then pound the grain with a long wooden pole in a large stone mortar to separate the grain from the husk. In this sense the grain is much more fresh compared to modern store-bought grains, even though it has been aged.

    Madam North Indians are descendents of Vedic people, not South Indians.

      Dear diego, unfortunately you have been misguided by western scholars who claim the south indians are a separate "dravidian" race. this theory is not at all supported by the Vedas and was probably introduced by the British to "divide and conquer." Although it is described in Manu smrti that arya-desa is the area between the himalayas and the vindhya mountains, that does not mean that the south indians are a different race. The Bhagavatam describes that the seven sons of the aryan King Malaydhvaja ruled over dravida desa (south india). It is also described in the Bhagavatam that even the Naishada class (forest dwellers) were born from the Aryan king Vena (then what to speak of the vaidikas!) Parasurama himself brought up the land of Kerala from the Arabian Sea and then gave the land in charity to the brahamanas of that area. All the Vaisnava acharyas (except Sri Krsna Caitanya) of the last 1000 years appeared in South India. If you go to south india you will find original Vedic culture and temples whereas much of that culture was destroyed in the North by foreign invaders
