In Bengali households, winter is celebrated with specially made Bengali delicacies called Pithe Puli. There are various versions and types of Pithe prepared in both Bangladesh and also in West Bengal. Mostly prepared during Makar Sankranti (Paus Parbon) these Pithe Puli are true traditional Bengali delicacies. There are both Sweet and savory versions of Pithe Puli. Till date in our Old Dhaka residence, Maa and my aunties prepare more than twenty types of Pitha during winters which include Kheer Patishapta, Dudh Puli, Bhaja Pithe, Gokul Pithe, Rosh Bora, Nolen Gurer Payesh and many more!
