Description of cutting paddies

The speaker describes the process of cutting paddies (aam). She was delayed by continuous rains and flooding which washed away the paddy bundles that were already cut. She says it will take 2-3 days to complete the entire paddy field. She explains that this variety, known as ranjit aam in Mising, was planted during aahar (June) and it is being cut during ahin-kati (October-November). Ranjit aam is one of the agotiyang aam, meaning 'paddy that is done before the actual season.' She says later she will cut other paddies including amdang aam, bor jangiya aam, and dumuang aam.

Description of smoking fish, part 2

Obawati Doley describes the process of smoking fish. She starts by cleaning the fish by removing the innards and the scales with a katok (knife) so the fish will cook faster. The cleaned fish is then put on the pérab. If the flame is high, one day of smoking is enough for the fish to be cooked. It can also be dried in the sun. She says Mising people are especially fond of smoked fish and meat.
