What it is

Bambino was founded in Hyderabad in 1982 by Myadam Kishan Rao, and vermicelli is still the brand's flagship, alongside its pasta and macaroni. This pack is the short-cut version: fine wheat strands already broken into short lengths.

Short strands are easy to stir and easy to eat with a spoon, so they suit a quick breakfast upma or a pot of kheer for guests. If you like it golden, give it a minute or two in ghee first. Choosing between vermicelli? Bambino Short Cut for roasting your own; Bambino Roasted Vermicelli to skip that step; Anil Varagu Vermicelli for a millet version.

Tip: Roast it in ghee on low and keep stirring. Semiya goes from golden to burnt in seconds.

Goes well with: Amul Ghee, Swaad Green Cardamom, Heera Cashew Nuts
