Alipurduar Steamed Rice Pitha

Food Confidence: low

Steamed rice pitha is a traditional North Bengal rice delicacy associated with Alipurduar's food culture, made from rice flour dough steamed in small discs and often eaten with chutney or with sweets during festivals. It is a staple in the region's vibrant food culture and a common market purchase from local sweet and pitha sellers. Buyers get the soft, mildly sweet steamed rice cakes typical of Terai Bengali kitchens.

Typical price: ₹20-150

Buying tip: Buy same-day from local shops; steamed pitha is best eaten fresh and does not keep long.
