A traditional Indian butter churn is operated by rapidly pulling a rope which turns a paddled spindle. The paddles churn cows milk inside a large jar until milk solids form. Ghee is made from cow milk butter which is treated with low heat until the water evaporates leaving behind milk solids. The solids are skimmed off or strained if needed. Ghee is a staple food on the Indian subcontinent and as a cooking oil it is the most widely used food in India apart from wheat and rice. Because of its exalted status at Hindu weddings ghee is expensive and in high demand. Male wedding guests are expected to compete with each other to see who can eat the most of it; consuming two pounds or more at a sitting is considered a proof of virility.

"A ragamala translated from Sanskrit as "garland of ragas" is a series of paintings depicting a range of musical melodies known as ragas. Its root word raga means color mood and delight and the depiction of these moods was a favored subject in later Indian court paintings. The celebration of music in painting is a distinctly Indian preoccupation. Ragamalas were first identified as a specific painting genre in the second half of the fifteenth century but their ancestry can be traced to the fifth- to seventh-century Brihaddeshi treatise which states: "A raga is called by the learned that kind of composition which is adorned with musical notes . . . which have the effect of coloring the hearts of men." Often the mood or raga is also written as poetry on the margins of the painting. These works thus evocatively express the intersections of painting poetry and music in Indian court art." -The Metropolitan Museum of Art Exhibition Overview Ragamala: Picturing Sound December 2014.
