The first thing that comes in mind when you think about the monsoon season is where to get your first box of Ghevar from. Rabri wala Ghevar, Kesar Ghevar, Dry fruit Ghevar and Malai Ghevar, kya hua, muh mein paani aa gaya? These crispy yet tender Ghevar trace back its history from the rich culture of Jaipur, Rajasthan and have become extremely popular in UP, Haryana, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. India is recognized as a Tyoharo ki Thali, and the ‘Food’ here becomes an irreplaceable part of these festivals, just like Teej is incomplete without Ghevar. Every nukkad, gali, shehar will offer a different zayka, swaad to your Ghevar with their regional twist in it. It won’t be wrong to say thanks to “fusion of food”, because of which today we have chocolate ghevar, sugar free ghevar and many more delicious options when looking for Ghewar. But do you think these new flavours can give takkar to the original “kesar wala malai ghevar”?
