Скачать или смотреть ODISHA PITHA — East India’s Festive Rice Cake

Pitha is Odisha’s traditional rice cake enjoyed during festivals, pujas, and special family gatherings.
There are many varieties of Pitha — steamed, fried, roasted — but all share a base of rice flour, coconut, and jaggery.
The version shown here is a soft, steamed pitha made by pouring rice batter into moulds, stuffing it with coconut–jaggery mixture, and steaming it slowly until it becomes delicately fluffy.

Pitha represents Odisha’s gentle cooking style — minimal spices, natural sweetness, and a great respect for seasonal ingredients.
Paired with morning tea, it feels warm, pure, and deeply nostalgic.

Pitha is prepared especially during festivals like Raja Parba, Makara Sankranti, and Durga Puja, where families make them in large batches and share them with neighbors.
