Mishti Doi plays a vital role in many Bengali celebrations, but during Durga Puja, it takes the centre stage as the most beloved dessert. This sweet yoghurt, traditionally set in earthen pots, boasts of a creamy texture and a delightful sweetness no other version of curd, yoghurt, or even frozen yoghurt can offer.
It is an age-old traditional practice in Bengali households to carry huge earthen post of Mishti Doi when visiting friends or family, during Durga Puja. The dessert acts as a befitting gift, fostering joyous moments of togetherness, whether on Sashti, when the Puja’s begin, or on Bijoya Dashami, when the celebrations come to an end.
This sweet yoghurt bears religious significance too. Mishti Doi is offered to the deity as a part of ritualistic practices with utmost reverence. It is a cultural tradition to serve Mishti Doi as the dessert at the end of the traditional ‘Bhog’ organised in Puja pandals. Walk into a pandal on a lazy Durga Puja afternoon and you’ll witness someone or the other from the pandal locality, sitting on a typical plastic chair, and relishing a Keventer Metro Mishti Doi cup with not a care in the world!
And that is how every Durga Puja celebration is meant to be—sweet, refreshing, and a much-awaited break from the monotony of daily life. However, what is strange to notice is that a practice which started eons ago, continues to sustain even after years of modernisation. From Baby Boomers to Gen Alpha, this sweet yoghurt has a huge fan following across generations!
So, as you step into this year’s festivities, don’t forget to add Keventer Metro Mishti Doi to your special Durga Puja food menu whether as a traditional practice or simply because you love this delight! Buy it from your nearest grocery store and give all your grand puja feasts a sweet ending.
