Sitaaskitchen

It’s been a lot on my mind for last 5-6 years to start something on " Mithila Cuisine" to bring the food & condiments accessible to people. Most people correlate Litti-Chokha with Bihar but the cuisine of Bihar is much much more. The biggest couldron of mouthwatering cuisine is available in Mithila. Most mithila food is cooked with a personal touch where there are dishes for every occasion & every season. From Chhathhi to Weddings to Shraddh ceremonies, there are a variety of main dishes, condiments, Sweets & snacks. Few people know that Maithils are primarily non vegetarians with a strong similarity with the Bengali food with their own spice & Taste twist. Few people know that Mithila excels in using the superfoods & millets in various ways like little millet ( Kauni) Kheer or Flaxseed with Lauki ( Teesi Sejmain). I have had experience of people being stunned to know that flaxseed can also be eaten in a vegetable dish or fritter ( Tisiyori). My quest to bring the Mithila Cuisine to people through just one finger click led me to plan a cloud kitchen of delicious mithila dishes. A distant dream may just turn into reality.. soon to be crystallised by me through a unique online venture called " Sitaaskitchen" which will make all kinds of regular food & fascinating delicacies available to order! Right now I can only say " Coming Soon"
