West Bengal is a small land, but it is a paradise for all kinds of dieters. Bangladeshi cuisine provides the largest choice and variety for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Although it is a small state, this region produces the most vegetables and the second most livestock meat, making West Bengal a paradise for gourmets. West Bengal happens to be the largest meat consumer (99% of the population).
Because of Bangladesh's soil, rich resources and favorable climate, there are many kinds of delicious food in Bangladesh. Geographical location (Tibet-Himalaya-Ganges Delta-Bay of Bengal) also contributes to the diversity of Bangladeshi cuisine. Bangladesh has far more vegetarian choices than other vegetarian countries in Rajasthan and Gujarat. In addition, unique vegetables such as taro, plantain flower and water lily are only available in West Bengal.
Bangladeshi food contains high protein and a lot of minerals. Fish is rich in omega fatty acids, minerals and phosphorus, which is an indispensable part of Bangladeshi cuisine. Because it is located at the intersection of the ocean and the river, the delicacies here include bony cartilaginous fish and marine mollusks such as oysters. Bangladesh is also the only country with both high mountains (Tibet-Himalayas) and the Bay of Bengal. After 65,438+0,000 China people fled to Kolkata, Bangladeshi cuisine was the only state that was really influenced by Tibetans and China people. In 1960s, Kolkata was a refuge for persecuted China people. Their culture has merged with the local Bangladeshi culture, forming a very unique fusion dish that can be found in other parts of India.
Bangladeshi fried noodles-China people came to Calcutta in the late 1950s to make their own Chinese noodles with local spices and vegetables. This dish is essentially made with local spices, which makes Chinese food more like Indian food. Fried potatoes are also used, which are unique to noodles all over India.
Bangladeshi food is not too spicy, which is good news for all types of people. Tastes vary from the hottest pepper (bhot Jalokia, also found in Bangladesh) to the sweetest food in Bangladesh.
West Bengal, India's top ten meat-producing states, has the highest vegetable production. Some very popular Bangladeshi dishes are: Bangladeshi fragrant rice (NV), the most unique variety of Indian fragrant rice. This flavor has little seasoning, and mainly emphasizes the taste of rice. Unlike Hyderabad or other places, you won't feel heavy and you won't get dysentery. Bonus: eggs, chicken/mutton/beef and potatoes are all available.
