Get transported instantly to your happy place with every bite of this incredible Besan Barfi! This sweet is not an “indulgence” because it is truly healthy for you to consume, unlike dairy-laden traditional sweets. You will be over the moon to know you can finally have your favourite sweet without worrying about your health! We use jaggery, so you will also get the goodness of minerals which jaggery contains. Ingredients: Gram Flour, Jaggery, Nuts, Pistachio shavings (no transfats, no hydrogenated fats, no palm oil) Background: Barfi gets its name from the Persian word “barf” which suggests snow since Barfi is comparable to ice/snow in look. This sweet is historically made up of milk, cream and sugar – all of which contribute to a decline in short-run and long-run health and is thus not utilized in our product. Barfi is typically of a white or creamy colour and incorporates a thick sweet texture. It always comes in a number of forms namely Kaju (cashew) Barfi/Katli, Pista Barfi, Besan (gram flour) Barfi, Khoya Barfi (made with buffalo milk), Coconut Barfi and even Chocolate Barfi! Barfi is coated with a skinny layer of edible argentiferous leaf, called varakh made from silver or gold leaf. Traditionally these were pounded in books made from buffalo intestines, but recent notifications by the Government of India makes it illegal to make varakh in these intestines. Instead, varakh is made on machines, and we at Meethi Kahani ensure that the varakh we use is 100% machine made.
