Side-by-side or overlay PDF diff driven by one engine that reads each file into a structured model — text, vector geometry, images, form fields, annotations — and compares the models. Moves show as moves, edits show only where they happened, and any PDF type works without picking a mode.

Hawaijar is the sticky fermented soybean of Manipur. Whole soybeans are soaked, boiled soft and fermented warm for a few days, where Bacillus bacteria make them alkaline, slimy and slightly pungent. It is made without salt, in homes and for sale.

Amounts from a sourceHousehold craft with no fixed amounts. The times and temperatures below are from a laboratory study that made hawaijar the traditional way.
Ficus hispida leaves ("hawaijar mana"), or a clean cotton cloth, to line the basket
The review describes a lidded bamboo basket (lubak) with a base layer of the leaves[Khapudang2018]
Starter
Spontaneous. No starter culture is added; the Bacillus may come from the raw soybeans, the basket, the cloth or the fig leaves [Keishing2013].

Hawaijar is the sticky fermented soybean of Manipur. Whole soybeans are soaked, boiled soft and fermented warm for a few days, where Bacillus bacteria make them alkaline, slimy and slightly pungent. It is made without salt, in homes and for sale. Made in 4 steps over 3.1 days. The longest step, ferment warm in a lined basket, takes 3 days (Thingujam B 2025) and runs at 38 °C (Thingujam B 2025). Bacillus subtilis group does most of the fermenting.
A review reports very high counts of Bacillus cereus and Proteus mirabilis (10^7–10^10 cfu/g) in some hawaijar, and enterotoxin and urease genes in isolates, and calls for hygienic, regulated production [Singh2023]. The sources set no numerical limit.
Hazards the sources name: Bacillus cereus group (128 of 274 isolates); Staphylococcus aureus; Proteus mirabilis (with B. cereus, up to 10^7–10^10 cfu/g in some products).
Singh and co-authors call hawaijar a culturally and gastronomically important food of Manipur and argue that a regulated food chain would make it safer [Singh2023]. Keishing and Banu say that making it gives income to rural people in Manipur [Keishing2013].
