Kesar Pista kulfi
In Northern India, kulfi is a popular delicacy. It is thought to have originated in the 16th century during the Mughal dynasty. The Mughal Emperor Akbar’s Ain-i-Akbari contains particular entries regarding Kulfi.
Kulfi has never failed to enchant the taste buds of Indian food enthusiasts since then. Kesar denotes saffron, whereas the word ‘pista’ means pistachio. As a result, the kulfi with saffron and pistachio flavours gained its name. It’s usually created by slowly boiling milk until it’s reduced to at least half its original volume, yielding a rich and sweet condensed/caramelized sweetness. Kulfi, which is made by slowly boiling milk, has a smooth, ice-free feeling. The Kulfi’s conical form distinguishes it. Kulfi can be frozen and shaped with specialised moulds.
Typical Kulfi ingredients include sugar, green cardamom, saffron, rose petals, or nuts.
