Do you know what is pinni sweet? Pinni is an exquisite, tasty treat specialising in the Punjab region and the other northern parts of India. The making of Pinni is a seasonal offering, when the ingredients are most organic: desi ghee, whole wheat flour, desi khand (unrefined sugar), and a dry fruits mix. The Pinni, richer than the common sweet, is very rich in protein and nutrients and, as a result, gets used as a snack, breakfast, or dessert, thus becoming a multi-functional food item. A large quantity is prepared, and the reason is quite simple: this sweet is their winter sustenance, a fact that clearly shows its place in Indian food culture.
