Karauli. Usually you must have eaten many such sweets, whose taste you can easily enjoy not for one or two days but for four-five days. The taste of most of the sweets made in India, the land of sweets, remains intact for about two-three days. But there is a special sweet made according to the season in Karauli, Rajasthan, which you can taste only for one day. On the second day, the taste of this special sweet seems to disappear or get spoiled.
This sweet, which is prepared from a special vegetable of the summer season, tastes fresh. Its taste is so delicious that whoever has tasted it, it is difficult for him to forget its amazing taste. As soon as summer arrives, lovers of this sweet start craving to taste this sweet. The name of this sweet is Tinda ki Mithai. Its taste is years old in Karauli, Rajasthan.
The special thing is that in Karauli, the taste of this sweet is available only at two famous sweet shops for only 3 months in the summer season. And the demand for this Tinda sweet is so huge that it cannot be supplied daily.
This special sweet made of Tinda is prepared after a lot of hard work. The most special thing about it is that even if one person spends the whole day preparing it, hardly 5 kg of Tinda sweet is completely prepared by the evening.
Its taste is very old in Karauli
Vicky Soni of Soni Mishthan Bhandar, one of the two sweet shops in Karauli, says that the taste of this Tinda sweet is very good and old. It was started to be made in Karauli by the old people. Soni says that it takes a lot of hard work to make this sweet, that is why not everyone can make it. This sweet is available only at two sweet shops in Karauli. One is at our place and the other is at Jhandu Maharaj’s shop in Bada Bazar. This sweet is not available anywhere else.
Soni says that there is a lot of demand for Tinda sweets here. Because this sweet is made here only for three months, summer, according to the season. In these three months also, it is necessary to get good Tinda vegetable for this sweet. This sweet can be made only when good Tinda is available in the market. As soon as this Tinda starts becoming hard, then the making of this sweet stops.
This sweet is made only fresh
The biggest quality of Tinda ki mithai is that it is the only sweet that is made fresh every day. The taste of this sweet is a little different or it gets spoiled on the second day. Tinda ki mithai is only enjoyable when eaten fresh. Because the taste that comes in its freshness is not there on the second day. That is why Vicky Soni says that he makes only 5 kg of Tinda ki mithai every day. Which gets sold completely by the evening.
The taste of this sweet is amazing
Pawan Hardenia of Jhandu Mishthan Bhandar, the second place of this sweet in Karauli, says that the taste of Tinda sweet is very amazing. This is a seasonal sweet. The demand for it is so much here that this sweet cannot even be made. Pawan says that the demand for this sweet is there in Jaipur, Agra, Delhi. While Agra itself is the originator of sweets. But people from there also come here to buy this sweet.
Pawan tells that the specialty of Tinda ki Mithai is that it remains cool due to which it provides coolness in summers. And this sweet is also tasty. Since it is made from vegetables, no adulteration or any type of chemical is used in it.
