Source: Shodhganga: Dietetics and culinary art in ancient and medieval IndiaMudgaudana (मुद्गौदन) refers to “cooked rice mixed with beans”, according to the Upaniṣads, and is commonly found in literature dealing with the topics of dietetics and culinary art, also known as Pākaśāstra or Pākakalā.—The discussions on rice can be seen only in post-Ṛgvedic literature. [...] Towards the period of Upaniṣads, different varieties of food items were prepared with rice and are named as kṣīraudana (cooked rice mixed with milk), dadhyodana (mixed with curds), tilaudana (mixed with sesame), māṃsaudana (mixed with meat), ghṛtaudana (mixed with ghee) and mudgaudana (mixed with beans). Thus we can say that the Upaniṣadic people have done varieties of experimentations of rice and are aware about the different rice preparations.
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.

Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
