You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.166.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:02, 6 May 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

A '''papadam''' (also spelled '''poppadom''', among other variants), also known as '''papad''', is a snack that originated in the [[Indian subcontinent]]. Dough of [[Vigna mungo|black gram bean]] flour is either [[Deep frying|deep fried]] or cooked with dry heat (flipped over an open flame) until crunchy. Other flours made from [[lentils]], [[chickpeas]], [[rice]], [[tapioca]], [[millet]] or [[potato]] are also used. Papadam is typically served as an accompaniment to a meal in [[India]], [[Pakistan]], [[Bangladesh]], [[Nepal]], [[Sri Lanka]] and the [[Caribbean]] or as an [[Hors d'oeuvre|appetizer]], often with a dip such as [[chutney]]s, or toppings such as chopped [[onion]]s and [[chili pepper]]s, or it may be used as an ingredient in [[Curry|curries]].

==Etymology==
''Papad'' is likely derived from the [[Sanskrit]] word ((Transliteration|sa|parpaṭa)) (((Lang|sa|पर्पट))), meaning a flattened disc described in early Jain and Buddhist literature.<ref>((Cite web|title=Poppadom - Definition and synonyms of poppadom in the English dictionary|url=https://educalingo.com/en/dic-en/poppadom|access-date=2021-09-22|website=educalingo.com|language=en))</ref><ref>((Cite web |title=Lip-Smacking Ways to Use Papad: From Masala Papad to Rolls and Chaats |url=https://food.ndtv.com/food-drinks/lip-smacking-ways-to-use-papad-from-masala-papad-to-rolls-and-chaats-1731969 |access-date=2022-09-12 |website=NDTV Food |language=en |quote=According to food historian and author KT Achaya, "The parpata (papad) is first mentioned in about 500BC in Buddhist-Jain canonical literature, and the medical authorities note that they are made from pulses like urad, masoor, chana and the like."))</ref> Papad is known by several names in the various [[languages of India]], e.g. (((Lang|te|అప్పడం))) in [[Telugu language|Telugu]]; ''((Transliteration|ta|appalam))''(அப்பளம்) in [[Tamil language|Tamil]]; ''happala'' in [[Kannada]]; ((Transliteration|si|papadam)) (((Lang|si|පපඩම්))) in [[Sinhala language|Sinhala]]; ''pappadam'' in [[Malayalam]]; ''((Transliteration|te|appadam))''  ''papad'' in [[Marathi language|Marathi]],<ref>((cite journal |last1=Khedkar |first1=Renu |last2=Shastri |first2=Pratima |last3=Bawa |first3=Amarinder Singh |title=Standardization, Characterization and Shelf Life Studies on Sandge, a Traditional Food Adjunct of Western India |journal=International Journal of Environment, Agriculture and Biotechnology |date=2016 |volume=1 |issue=2 |pages=237–243 |doi=10.22161/ijeab/1.2.18|doi-access=free))</ref> [[Punjabi language|Punjabi]] and [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]]; and ''pampad'' (ପାମ୍ପଡ) in [[Odia language|Odia]].((citation needed|date=August 2017))
===Spelling and pronunciation===
Some divergence of transliteration may be noted in the third consonant in the [[Hindustani language|Hindi/Urdu]] word ''pāpaṛ'' (((Lang-hi|पापड़)), [[Urdu]]: ((Nastaliq|((nq|پاپڑ))))). The sound is the [[retroflex flap]] ((IPAblink|ɽ)), which is written in [[Standard Hindi|Hindi]] with the [[Devanagari]] letter ड़, and in [[Urdu alphabet|Urdu script]] with the Perso-Arabic letter ڑ. Although in [[ISO 15919]] the Hindi letter ((lang|hi|ड़)) is transliterated as <[[ṛ]]>, popular or nonstandard transliterations of Hindi use <d> for this sound. The occurrence of this consonant in the word ((transl|inc|ISO|pāpaṛ)) has given rise to two alternative spellings in English: ''papar'' (anglicized as "popper"), which reflects its phonology, and ''papad'', which reflects its etymology.

==Regional variations==

[[File:RollednRoastedPapads.jpg|225px|thumb|[[Jackfruit]] ''papadam'' from [[Bengaluru]] |alt=]]
[[File:Different Papad - Kolkata 2015-10-21 6134.JPG|thumb|Different types of papads are sold at stores.|alt=]]
Papad recipes vary from region to region and from household to household. They are typically made from a flour or paste derived from lentils, chickpeas, black gram, rice, or potatoes.

[[Salt]] and [[peanut oil]] are added to make a dough, which can be flavored with seasonings such as [[Chile pepper|chili]], [[cumin]], [[garlic]], or [[black pepper]]. Sometimes, [[baking soda]] or [[slaked lime]] are also added. The dough is shaped into thin, round [[flatbread]]s, dried (traditionally in the sun), and can be cooked by [[deep frying]], roasting over an open [[flame]], toasting, or [[microwaving]], depending on the desired texture.

[[Bikaner]] is the hub of chickpea and green gram papad manufacturing. Potato papad is made in [[Varanasi]]. Most sweet- and snack-selling national companies are also involved in this business. In the north, papads made in the city of Amritsar and its surrounds are especially famous. The [[Shri Mahila Griha Udyog Lijjat Papad|Lijjat Papad company]], headquartered in [[Mumbai]], is a major manufacturer, and is often cited as an exemplar of the women's empowerment movement in India, as it is run entirely by women.

In most [[Indian restaurant]]s around the world, they are served as an [[hors d'œuvre|appetizer]] with dips, which often include [[mango chutney]], [[South Asian pickle|lime pickle]], [[onion chutney]], and ''[[raita]]''.<ref>((Cite web |date=2023-05-23 |title=Poppadom Dips Recipe (easy Indian dips) |url=https://www.jcookingodyssey.com/2023/03/23/poppadom-dips/))</ref> Masala papad with [[sev (food)|sev]], onion, tomato and coriander leaves is one of India's most popular appetizers.

==Ingredients and preparation==
Papadam can be prepared from different ingredients and methods. One popular recipe uses flour ground from hulled split black gram<ref name="SmarttNwokolo2012">((cite book|author1=J. Smartt|author2=Emmanuel Nwokolo|title=Food and Feed from Legumes and Oilseeds|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cvfSBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA12|date=6 December 2012|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|isbn=978-1-4613-0433-3|page=28))</ref> mixed with black pepper, salt, a small amount of vegetable oil and a food-grade alkali, and the mixture is kneaded. A well-kneaded dough is then flattened into very thin rounds and then dried and stored for later preparation and consumption. It may also contain rice, [[jackfruit]], [[sago]], etc., as main ingredients. 

Cracked black pepper, red chili powder, [[asafoetida]], cumin or [[sesame]] seeds are often used as flavoring agents. Papadam is also made from rice flakes, ragi or [[horsegram]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://udupi-recipes.com/2018/03/poha-papad-rice-flakes-papad.html|title=Poha papad,Rice flakes Papad, Summer Recipe|date=11 March 2018|publisher=Udupi-Recipes|access-date=9 January 2020))</ref>
