Misti Doi
Misti Doi is a traditional Bengali dessert made from sweetened yogurt. It is known for its creamy texture and delightful taste, often enjoyed as a refreshing end to a meal. The yogurt is typically set in earthen pots, which adds a unique flavor and aroma to the dish.
To prepare Misti Doi, milk is boiled and then cooled before adding a starter culture. Sugar is mixed in to sweeten the yogurt, and it is left to ferment for several hours. Once set, it can be garnished with nuts or served plain, making it a popular treat in Bengal and beyond.
