- The Ajmer Sharif Dargah in Rajasthan, India, is one of the holiest Sufi sites in the world. There, devotees cook a sweet rice dish in a deg, or cauldron, for the thousands of pilgrims who visit the shrine each day. The cauldron is one of the largest in the world, measuring 37 feet wide and 15 feet deep, with a capacity to cook 4,800 kilograms. We visited the shrine to see how these devotees prepare their prasad, or religious offering, in such big batches.

How 5 Tonnes Of Sweet Rice Is Cooked In The World's Largest Cauldron In India | Big Batches
Hygiene is just on another level.
It's what gives the taste
So good to see so many hands literally going into this dish.
Ladder is the key ingredient and it's delicious!!
No..its those boot and spit by maulvi, sweat and fart makes is little more spicy
So much propaganda by hindOs@@ashes1895
😂😂
I'm sure the food is very tasty, but the whole process is a hygienic nightmare XD
People who usually eat from temple mosque and church are poor or orphan last thing they worry in life is hygiene
South asians have strong immune systems lol
That’s sums up the entirety of india honestly. Lol
India isa hygienic nightmare
Well it's hard to please everyone especially the germaphobes.
Big Batches is the BEST!!!!! Thanks! And we LOVE Claudia, her narration is amazing, I want her to narrate while I cook supper every day :)
"Everyone is equal and noone leaves on an empty stomach." what a wonderful idea.
*Throws the "worker" in* it's food anyway.

Someone wrote a song about that, some guy from Liverpool, he is not around anymore sadly. His wife and two sons are, though.

So before cooking the Rice, do they "Sanitize" the inside? Due to the amount of microbes, money carry? Not to mention other elements.
Of course they do, this is a holy site
@@rayadawn3535 Thanks, I did not know. Perhaps they should have touched upon that. Although the message here should be more focused on how beautiful it is, when a religion/organization is willing to feed strangers.. Than us, wondering about the cleanliness, we in Western Society, are used to.
@@rayadawn3535 -- No they don't even if they did, the ladder and whatever contraption the dude has around his leg is extremely unsanitary. This is a massive health hazard and the appropriate authorities should shut this down ASAP.
@@rayadawn3535holy is not synonymous to sanitary lol. Just take a look at river ganges for example
@@thesquire2980 It seems from the evidence, that the locals do not get sick. You know, evidence. That would be remedial science.
I never imagined a cooker so big that you needed to use a ladder to climb down to get the food.
Only muslims use such unhealthy methods, other religions like Sikhs and Hindus also cook such big batches but we use modern techniques
@@adityamessiah69
Why so poisonous
@@AgnosticFascist It's not about being poisonous, it's about adapting with time and they get enough donations for that, can't you just imagine how unhygienic it is for a man to enter the cauldron with a ladder and then serve it, slightest mistake can result in a mass food poisoning
And don't try to relate it with Religious hatred
@@adityamessiah69
Based on simple Statistic & Scientific thinking of proof --> inference
When 6 million people visit every year and Durgah is using same Degh - Cauldron for 6 centuries .
If there is no major food poisoning happem in last 60-70 years of independent india's published history, Then certainly Durgah people taking care of Food Quality issue.
You can't publically express negetive views without iota of bad action by entity. Your perception should stay in your head.
Think about why ACTUAL REALITY is different than your PERCEPTION & EXPECTATION and fix your life
@@adityamessiah69 We know how you hindus hygenic 🤢
👍👌👏 Impressive and amazing!
Always love.. Big batches✨.. Just wanted to clear one simple thing..... You called it prashad.. N another main thing it's not temple... It's d called dargah....
Just hoping to make u understand well... N clearly...
Although in our india people of every religion work hard to feed piligrims who comes for worshipping ( no matter it's any religion ...) ...
... Just love and proud to be an indian🇮🇳...
Insider, u're amazing
It would be cool to see this in person! How incredible
Crazy! wow! 👏
The amazing thing about this rice dish is that it comes out of you looking exactly like how it went in.
Amazing this is it will come out of the body exactly like it went in.
It will cleanse you up good for Shure.
Oh god, you gave my imagination an idea, and its not a good one. How am I supposed to eat anything yellow-ish now??
😂😂😂😂😂
@@huanng9526you don't 😅
At no point did they say if they wash the cauldron after emptying the donations. 💀

They don’t
They clean this after taking the all things
Incredible. That Deg is almost four times older than my country!
My grand mother is older than your country
That pot can’t be that old because that look like that electrical arc welding that was only invented in the 1930s

I LOVE THIS SERIES! Glad I somehow stumbled on it!
After decades of learning the hard way... unfortunately my immune system would not survive this. But I wish it was as strong as theirs.💕
Here is a hot take: Not having stuff like this on a social level is why your society suffers from higher rates of auto immune diseases and weak immunity.
@@rutvikrs thats not a hot take , thats the complete true , people that are too worry about microbes usually are weaker

Because you are weak. Bacteria lives on and in everything, alive and dead. Destroying and avoiding it has made western societies sicker.

You do know that Western countries donate and try to help poorer countries more than those living in them do, right?

Great video thanks for sharing it ❤ and educating the world about these traditions and customs and cultures very touching. Sharing is caring it symbolizes peace in the world ☪️🇵🇰
Look yummy wow!
Hope no accidents happened while in the process of cooking it. Like the chef fell on that cauldron and cooked alive.
😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 my god! Can't stop laughing
That would add flavour to the soup
There is video of a poor guy falling back into a much smaller cauldron. People could not pull him out, till they finally dumped the entire thing over, but it was too late for the gentlemen.
Something tells me that they don't wash the latter or the ropes after each use, nevermind people throwing in money and other junk before the cook, I'd pass, there's gotta be a better way.
Tasty
That's not 37 ft wide, there's no way. Love the amazing thought behind it all though! Makes me smile.
Yeah I agree, I wonder if they mean circumference which would give it a diameter of roughly 11 feet 10 inches which, visually, makes a lot more sense.
Barring these people being dwarfs or giants, I'd say the width is around 18-20 ft.
seems super hygienic
nice, really wondering what the practical use for this sort of thing is
You literally just watched a video about that
@@Ss-fy9ez not really this is tooo big for practical use, the pressure at the bottom would crush lentiil and rice,
Absolutely 😂 , you could easily use small multiple vessels to cook , but you have to use this unhygienic way
this looks insane!
Oh my stomach bubbling 🤢
Good food 🍱
I think clean is a very relative term in this case.
Sure it might not be that sanitary but bringing the community together is probably the more important thing of this cauldron
The heat makes it sanitary.
And I mean it's India. Their gut bacteria are well trained.
🤦♂️
Instead of simply pouring something out, 5 individuals shove all their hands inside first.
No matter what race, creed, religion, or color you are, that shit is nasty, absolutely unnecessary, and you all KNOW it.
Just. Stop. Defending. Poor. Hygiene.
You don't want to be shamed? Don't ask for it.
How is it not sanitary? The deg is cleaned before it is used for cooking. They are pouring the ingredients directly into it. Stirring food with wooden utensils is safer than using plastic or nylon which leach chemicals and BPA into hot food- heck I'd rather eat food that had a wooden ladder in it over heated plastic. The man who climbed down to get the food was wearing clean coverings over his shoes. You would be shocked at how "sanitary" many restaurants are.
India. Where food safety is a mere suggestion.
Ok yt clean your @$$ , first then talk
It is safe than you think. That's the largest pot I have ever seen. In India mega kitchens and utensils are needed to treat all the people.
Not representative of all places in India.
You whites let your dogs walk outside and then hop in straight to bed…
Who cares? Everyone gets fed and that is special.
Very interesting
Where is the health and safety officer and food standards agency?
its india, it doesn't exist
paid off to look the other way...
If India had health inspectors, the whole country would have to be shut down.
Enjoying the tasty pudding daily for free and gets 3 extra to take home.

represented in such filthy way ??? 🤮
@@tarunpatra1394 So smelly odiya temples should be featured?

The rope..delicious..
I prefer the wooden ladder shavings
It was Yaammmyyy back then in 1750 bc now its super delicious
Imagine falling into it at high heat.
i was saying the same thing. even if you manage to get out you'd still end up half cooked 😱😁
ya'll want some feet rice?💀
peaceful culture
The Indian tradition of cooking in big batches is a wonderful way to help the less fortunate and promote equality. However, they should also consider the safety of the cooks involved. With such large pots, there's a risk of someone accidentally falling in and getting cooked even before he was pulled out😮💨 To prevent this, they could atleast make the lids higher or have the cooks wear aprons with secure ties.
6:20 is the guy on the right throwing somebody's leftovers back in? xD
Looks cool but how sanitary can that be??
Masha Allah
Did they wash this massive cauldron first?
all of those hands, yummy
This is not temple, or prasad but tabarruk, a Durgah of Saints, who dedicated their lives to spread the word of loving God, and their doors were open to anyone who seek light, guidence, or just need their sorrows, worries sorted, they have passed away, yet People keep their memories and love for them.
Even the head guy was calling it prasad
@@shesh32 he said because here not only muslim come
All community comes here and Normally Indians called PRASAAD
The Ajmer rape case involved the serial rapes and blackmailing of girls by local gang in Ajmer, Rajasthan in 1992. It is one of sexual exploitation scandals.[2][3][1] The scandal involved young girls. The news of the scandal broke after a local paper, ‘Dainik Navajyoti’ published some nude images and a story about school students being blackmailed by local gangs.[4]
1992 Ajmer serial rape
Location
Ajmer, Rajasthan, India
Coordinates
53.430°N 1.357°W
Type
Sexual abuse and blackmailing (Estimated 250 (1991-1992, according to the media report) aged approximately 11-20
Reporter
Deenbandhu Chaudary and Santosh Gupta, Dainik Navajyoti. [1]
Inquiries
Rajasthan Police (1992-2021)
Trial
Rajasthan High Court and Supreme Court of India
Convictions
5 of the accused convicted, including Farooq Chishtee.
The investigation of the case was stalled by police under political pressure as the main accused, Farooq Chishtee, belonging to the Khadims of Ajmer Sharif Dargah, was president of the Ajmer Indian Youth Congress.[5] Eventually, 18 serial offenders were charged in court. 8 were convicted for life and 4 among them were later acquitted in 2001.[6] In 2007, a fast track court in Ajmer convicted Farooq Chishti, but in 2013, Rajasthan High Court released him on time served.[7]
"The accused were in a position of influence, both socially and financially, and that made it even more difficult to persuade the girls to come forward and depose," says retired Rajasthan D.G.P. Omendra Bhardwaj, who was then posted as the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Ajmer.[8] The Supreme Court noted in this case, "Unfortunately many of the victims who appeared as witnesses turned hostile and one can appreciate the reason why they did not want to depose against the appellants as that would have exposed them as well, and would have adversely affected their future life."[8] The case has been compared to the Rotherham child sexual exploitation scandal.[citation needed]
Pagan this not of God... folks serving idols
I'm sorry , but the subtitles is so bad. What religion is this ? I heard he said buddha , but from my pov , that looks like muslim community no ? If so , good for them to feeding people even from different religions.
Does this cauldron get washed or it's been years of preserving flavour of past dishes and money?
How do they clean the cauldron?
Khane/prsad/tabarruk m pair kaun rkhta h bhai
Everyone wants to touch the spices with their hands
Looks very hygienic every one should accept this holi prasad
It is dargah event of muslims holi is a hindu festival
@@Rajivsince2002 He meant Holy not Holi
Dude its a very famous dargah they should perhaps use some new tech rather than just send a guy in to get food out muslim waqf board is 3rd largest land owning body in india only after indian army and indian railway still no progress casue some maulvis just corrupt all the 💰
Did you see any Muslim going to temple by heartful not at all. They have destroyed all our monuments and sculpture and statues have not you seen in historical places.
Open your mind and eyes bro
They spit in it to make it Halala 😢
Way Cool 😎
Inshah Allah soon
what a beautiful place, and a beautiful practice. amazing!
Ugly place. It gave me diarrhea.
Nothing beautiful about this place. Hindu School girls were sxually exploited here. You can search Ajmer 1992 incident on the internet to know about the reality of this place. Additionally this place has a grave of Sufi who invited Islamic invaders to loot, r@pe and forcefully convert people to Islam.
yeah nothing like feet for that extra spice. its not even like rubber boots or something. its just cloth wrapped with rope. basically a sock. i like how the narrator has to say, "special shoe covers that are clean" but when u look at it. he obviously walked to get to the pot... so the ground isnt exactly clean
I was looking for this comment 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😂 special shoe covers 😂 his damn shower towel wrapped using rope 😂 dude hilarious
Yes , disgusting 💦
Also, scooping rice with that bucket while being exposed to the heat is bound to make him sweat. 🤮Where does the sweat go??
how do they clean it?

I admire people who would dare eat from that cauldron. Just seeing the guy standing on it is a no already.

It's a community thing, because half of the community is inside the dish.

Cool tradition. Beautiful culture.
Yes muslim culture
Backwards tradition, ugly culture
@1:10 how is it cleaned though?
❤❤❤❤❤
Man, if this is the way of cooking in my country. The place will get shut down because of hygiene concerns.
But it is not your country. It is India, where they do things the way they see fit.
Same. Health inspections must not be a thing in India.
This was mainly for a specific community but others are also welcome. Usually food in large quantities like this does call for hygiene concerns but we all go by a mutual trust for those who want to have this. People who can't stand this, just ignore and move on
Even bacteria gets sick
I like the drip of the guy at 0.24

So Claudia isnt doing remotes anymore? Such a pity😢
This is not a Hindu temple but it's a Islamic shrine. Food in temples are prepared in much hygienic way because we offer that food to God first.
Load of bollocks

Poor hygiene is what scares me
Good deed, but it doesn't look sanitary in my opinion.
So what u do for work?
I swing buckets from inside a bucket.
They need a pump system to empty that thing not a man with a bucket
What a beautiful food culture in India.
You forgot the /s
@@marge9250Redditor spotted
But 98% of the well is empty. They could have made same amount with smaller container
not the point. the point is giant pot
Have you ever seen searing any pan filled with food?
They literally mentioned that the big pot is not used daily, and is substituted for a relatively smaller one unless they need the capacity. It was probably a showcase by the management on the day of the shoot.
More so, traditions are more important to them than the amount of food being cooked.
So they walk inside it, then cook inside it.......
