Misti Doi originated from West Bengal and also Orissa and Bangladesh

It’s a real treat to have mishti doi from the local sweet shop here. It’s served in Terra Cota cups in 100 gms or 200 gms or even more. It’s always served chilled and you will, of course, take the second cup after first. It’s just so delicious that you will just eat it cup after cup.

There are generally two ways in which you can make. I will show you both the ways of how to make mishti doi. Firstly, by leaving the milk mixture overnight to a culture at room temperature and secondly, by baking it.

I, generally make it by keeping it overnight but there is an uncertainty of whether curd will set or not. But if you bake well, it well stands out as the full proof recipe of Mishti Doi or Mitha Dahi.
