What the temple kitchen actually cooks
Temple naivedyam is governed by the temple’s own Āgama and established kitchen tradition, and the working formula — the dittam — is generally not published. Where an official source describes the ritual menu, that is what is recorded here. What is distributed to devotees is not necessarily identical to what is offered inside the sanctum.
