Overview
A young nun quietly prepares tsampa in a traditional yak tent, treating viewers to a brief lesson in how to make eating a mindful act. Tsampa—sometimes called the Tibetan national food—is a mixture of roasted barley flour, yak butter, and tea, and is often the only food available to the subsistence farmers and yak herders of rural Tibet.
