Kummayam (also called Aadi Kummayam) is a time-honoured sweet from the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu, prepared using a wholesome blend of whole urad dal, moong dal, and raw rice, roasted and ground into a fine flour. This flour is slow-cooked with jaggery, palm jaggery, and ghee to create a rich, non-sticky sweet with a halwa-like consistency.<\/p>\n

Kummayam uses minimal ingredients, yet it delivers rich flavour, tradition, and nutrients, which have helped it remain a treasured dish across generations. Families especially prepare this sweet during the Tamil month of Aadi and give it to girls after puberty to boost iron and protein intake, supporting their growth and strength.<\/p>\n
