FESTIVE INDIAN SWEETS


A MELANGE OF DESI FLAVORS TO OFFER THIS FESTIVE SEASON

We are finally at that part of the year when the festivity has just begun! With the onset of the auspicious occasion of Lord Ganesh Festival, we are now looking up to a series of occasions to celebrate, have an array of spreads and sweet treats to entice our palate and offer the blessed delicacies to our loved ones, friends & families. Food has always been an integral part of any festival and it somehow connects us together spreading the joy of happiness, and the bites of delicious preparations add it up all the more, making it memorable.

Sweets & mithai are always a temptation but moderation, being the key to balance, must always be kept in mind. Planning is of vital importance when it comes to festive cooking. With the sweets, especially, it is always a good idea to make a list of ingredients needed, approximate quantities required, any special unusual product/ equipment, etc. needed. These must be on the reminder list before we start getting into the kitchen to get things rolling. Also, another important element to perfection, here, is to follow the recipe and do not always go with just guessing and approximation since some of the sweet recipes need ‘formula balancing’ as we technically call it.
