The "Ury" was one such relic that served the bygone. It is fairly a simple rig that is used to preserve cuisines for longer periods. These "ury"'s were usually kept at certain height from the ground with the help of coir ropes attached to the roofs. The "Ury"'s were usually used to store clay pots and other earthen ware and was very common among the keralite household. This simple yet indispensable "Ury" made sure that the food was kept hygienic without loosing any of its flavour but had a side-effect of bringing back old yet touching memories..
