Durga Puja -- Fasting & Feasting
During this festive season I would like to take a break from recipes and touch upon the food that is enjoyed by Bengalis, not just in West Bengal, but all over the world during Durga Puja. Durga Puja is the time when we worship the Mother Goddess and celebrate the bounties of Mother Nature; and what does Mother Nature gives us? Food of course. Since this is a food blog I will not go into details of the festival but just touch upon the food.
