At TANUR PAAKSHALA we document the food of Calcutta. We cook traditional Bengali
recipes prepared in home kitchens, as well as some of the most beloved dishes
found in the myriad streets, cabins, and restaurants in the city.
While we share some ofthe classic recipes with you (because who doesn't love
shorshe ilish, chingri malai curry, and mishti doi?), we also bring you a whole
host of dishes that are considered too humble for guests. They are eaten in the
privacy of our own families, and provide as much comfort as they do nutrition.
With this project, Bong kitchen2.o, we hope to demystify such preparations and
make them accessible tojust about anyone interested in cooking and eating.
