Khirer Putul
Khirer Putul is a traditional Bengali sweet made from milk. It is a type of soft, creamy dessert that is often shaped into small dolls or figures, which is where its name comes from, as "putul" means "doll" in Bengali. The sweet is typically prepared by boiling milk and then curdling it with lemon juice or vinegar, followed by kneading the resulting chenna (fresh cheese) to create a smooth texture.
This delicacy is popular during festivals and special occasions in Bengal. It is often flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts, enhancing its taste and appeal. Khirer Putul is not only enjoyed for its sweetness but also for its artistic presentation, making it a favorite among both children and adults.
