| Title |
Origin of Axone |
| Description |
This story is about the origin of axone, a fermented soya bean dish found throughout Nagaland, where it is usually called 'akhuni'. In this story, two sisters go to the field to work, carrying their lunch of soya beans. Since they cannot finish all the soya beans, they leave some under the roof of a house. Upon returning three days later, they find the beans have turned mouldy but still smell and taste good. The older sister says to the younger one that they ought to be eating like that all the time - the beans are delicious. Since then, Sumis have cooked axone and axone has become an important to them. |
