Recipe Contributor Smt. Yashodamma, a regular cook for preparing Prasadam recipes as offering in Jambul Ganapathy temple, 5th Main, 5th Cross Malleswaram, Bangalore (where her son Shri Venkataramana is a priest) has this to say:
“Top up ingredients like raisins, cashewnuts, saffron and elaichi generally used for sajjige are not used when I prepare as Prasadam for offering to God”
