Ranna Puja | Arandhan | Bengal Tradition | Cooking At Home | Biswakarma puja | Bangali Food Festival


Ranna Puja is a traditional Hindu festival. It is mainly celebrated in different regions of West Bengal. The ritual of cooking foods the night before the puja and eating (stale food) it the next day is Arandhan (Cooking is forbidden on that day).
At present-day, the normal mood and customs of Arandhan festival have relaxed a lot due to the busyness of modern times. However, this festival is still widely celebrated in rural areas or Kolkata's suburbs areas.
On the eve of the puja, a portion of the various dishes is offered to the deity, that were cooked the day before. But the main ritual of this festival is to offer the best vegetables and fish of the season to the deity. Panta bhat is notable among stale foods. Those who are vegetarians have vegetarian cooking in their homes. But non-vegetarian cooking is prevalent in most households. Ilish and shrimp are one of the seasonal fish among non-vegetarians
