How To Ensure Your Mithai Is Pure?

Mithai in India, is a vital part of Indian culture. They hold a significant place in celebrations and are essential to any auspicious occasion, such as Diwali, Raksha Bandhan, Holi, weddings, and other joyous celebrations. The unique flavours, aromas, and textures of these sweets reflect India's diverse culture and traditions, making them an inseparable part of its heritage. For every occasion, there is a tempting mithai to suit your taste: from the hot twisted Jalebi filled with sweet chaasni (sugar syrup) to the ever-popular Kaju Katli.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to determine which mithai (Indian sweets) are pure and of good quality due to growing concerns about purity and quality. This is where Rasoda comes in. We ensure that you can fully enjoy the authentic flavours of various Indian sweets from different regions, all on your plate. We use only genuine, high-quality ingredients to guarantee the taste and quality of our mithai.

Right Ingredients

The main factor that determines whether mithai is pure or not, is the ingredients used in its preparation. Unfortunately, some sweet shops use dalda oil (palm oil), which is known to be harmful to one’s health. Choosing high-quality ingredients from trusted suppliers is crucial. Additionally, it's important to inspect ingredients like nuts (such as almonds, pistachios, and saffron) for spoilage when making sweets. At Rasoda, we only use pure ghee and pure milk that are free from any preservatives or additives. This ensures that the mithai that we offer is authentic and delicious.

Avoid Artificial Flavours and Preservatives

Mithais are a delight for the senses with their unique aroma, flavour, and texture. However, the use of artificial flavours and preservatives to enhance their shelf life and taste is a growing concern among health-conscious individuals. These additives not only dilute the authentic taste but can also pose a risk to one's health. To ensure the purity and authenticity of mithai, it is crucial to stick to natural ingredients and avoid artificial additives. Authentic mithai prepared with natural ingredients such as milk, sugar, and nuts will have a distinct flavour profile that is unique and refreshing, making them stand out from their artificially flavoured counterparts.

Preparation Process

When it comes to mithais, it is crucial to choose a sweet shop that prioritises hygiene, since most mithais are made by hand rather than machines. The preparation process is key to ensuring the purity of the mithai. Sweet shops that use traditional cooking methods, such as simmering milk for hours to make khoya (milk solids), using a copper vessel to make sugar syrup, and hand rolling and shaping the mithais, guarantee the authenticity and quality of the sweets. These traditional cooking methods should be followed, as they help to maintain the authenticity and integrity of the flavours. The use of clean utensils, hygienic cooking spaces, and gloves by the chefs are all indicators of a restaurant's commitment to purity.

At Rasoda, we believe in using only the best ingredients to provide our customers with healthy and delicious food. We use 100% pure ghee to enhance the health benefits of our dishes. We never use any artificial sweeteners in our mithai, which makes it less sweet but healthier. We prepare our own Paneer, Mawa, and Khoya in-house to maintain their purity and avoid adulteration. To ensure the healthiest grains in our food, we promote Jowar, Nachni, Bajra, and Makka and use only traditional methods of cooking.
