The cuisine of Odisha

The cuisine of Odisha is known to be very simple, and delicate yet mouth-watering and satisfies the taste buds to a great extent. Moreover, the dishes are always prepared with less oil or no oil which helps in the exposure of the flavor of the spices. Hence, the foods are also abdomen-friendly and healthy at the same time.

Temple cuisine

The temple cuisine is prepared using indigenously grown local cereals and vegetables, cooked in traditional methods using wood charcoal and earthen pots. The recipe is passed on from generation to generation. Though the food is simple, it tastes heavenly and compels tourists to crave more and more.

The Mahaprasad

This is the offering made by the priests of the temple to the God Lord Jagannath. There is a unique process of cooking this mahaprasad. Earthen pots are kept on top of the other over the burner.
