About Traditional Desserts & Sweets

My process is simple: I use wood and charcoal fires, not gas stoves, to cook my desserts. When you taste my Dal Sweet or Rabdi, you are getting the result of hours of slow simmering that allows the milk and lentils to thicken and caramelize naturally. This creates a depth of flavor that mass-produced sweets completely miss.
