Soan papdi

Sohan papdi (also known as san papri, shompapri, sohan papdi, shonpapdi or patisa)[1] is a popular dessert in the Indian subcontinent. It is made of gram flour (besan), all-purpose flour, ghee, sugar and milk.[2] It is usually cube-shaped or served as flakes, and has a crisp and flaky texture. Traditionally sold loose in rolled paper cones, modern industrial production has led to it being sold in the form of tightly formed cubes.[1]

Origin

Soan Papdi has no confirmed origin, but it is believed to have originated in the western state of Maharashtra, India.[3] According to culinary anthropologists, the word "soan" has a Persian origin and the name comes from the term sohan pashmaki.[4] Other speculation ranges from Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab to West Bengal.[5][6] It bears some resemblance to the Dragon's beard candy in China, Kkul-tarae in Korea,[7] and Persian pashmaki, which gave rise to the Turkish pişmaniye.[8]

Ingredients

Its main ingredients are sugar, gram flour, flour, ghee, almond, milk, and cardamom.[9]
