What it is

Chitale Bandhu Mithaiwale was founded in Pune in 1950 by brothers Raghunath and Narsinha Chitale, and grew out of a dairy business their father B.G. Chitale started in 1939. Their masala shev is besan pressed into thin strands and fried, with red chilli, ajwain, pepper, coriander, aniseed and a little clove worked into the dough.

It is warmer and darker than plain shev, with the chilli coming through first and the ajwain right behind. Choosing between Chitale snacks? Plain shev for topping, masala shev for eating by the handful, bakarwadi for sweet-spicy spirals.

Tip: Scatter a handful over poha or bhel at the table, not in the kitchen, so it is still crunchy when you eat it.

Goes well with: Chitale Bandhu Bakarwadi, Heera Poha Medium, Tata Tea Chakra Gold
