The technique of using Nanglo to separate such dust particles is locally known as Niffanne, Kelaune, Batasne, Hamkaune. For ages, it has been a very handy tool in Nepalese kitchen. But, in today’s century, where shopping mall trend is increasing in Nepal, and competition is growing day by day, people from developed part of the country follow less of the so called ‘Nanglo Tradition’, since the quality of food is improving tremendously. However, they still use it for drying food in the sun.
Nanglo is a local handicraft and is made up of bamboo. In the first picture, you can see a lady who uses it to display her goods for sale. This is a common scene in streets of Nepal. It is the second picture, where you will be able to see Nanglo more clearly.
