And in case you missed their previous episode with @Saeek who literally wrote THE book on Maharashtra cuisines (plural). Best Indian food book I've read in years.

Great episode. Wanted to add a bit more to chutney discussions in the episode. Fisherfolk and other communities also make chutney from dried fish like dried shrimp or dried bombay duck as well. Though it has a pungent smell, it is an umami bomb.

Great Episode especially if you want to learn the nuances and variations in Maharashtrian cuisine.
Hi HI HI, so this happened. We released a new episode where @Saeek joined @ajit_bhaskar & I to talk about what Maharashtrian food is beyond misal pav & vada pav. Pls to listen, subscribe & RT. cc @gauravsabnis @curiousgawker @_a_muse @MumbaiCentral

Thanks for this. Since you talk about rakti in the podcast, I just wanted to note that Shahu Patole refers to "lakuti", a blood pudding among the Mangs of Marathwada, which is made with w/ yesur masala.
Sadly, I don't believe his book's been translated yet.

@ajit_bhaskar lovely episode guys. Enjoyed it a lot given the fact that I love the sour taste. Fascinating to learn the various diversity in India esp from the north east. One accidental souring ingredient I came across few days back was unrpied kiwis (berry family again)

A few more names which seem to be missing / known by other names would be Totapuri mango, Rajapuri Mango (primarily used for pickles), Raywal (a juicy variety)

Like aphoos is Alphonso corrupted, pairi is Pereira. The best aam ras you can have. Sweet, smooth and out of this world. I know it's available in plenty in Bombay, and certainly the go to variety for Gujjus wanting aam ras.

A relatively underrated and underappreciated variety is the Pairi, widely available in Maharashtra. Don't know if it goes by a different name elsewhere.
