Soan papdi

Sohan papdi (also known as san papri, shompapri, sohan papdi, shonpapdi or patisa)[1] is a popular dessert in the Indian subcontinent. Soan Papdi has no confirmed origin, but it is believed to have originated in the western state Maharashtra, India.[2] According to a culinary anthropologists, the word "soan" has Persian origin and the name comes from the term sohan pashmaki.[3] Others speculation also includes that ranges from Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab and West Bengal.[4][5] It bears some resemblance to the Dragon's beard candy in China, Kkul-tarae in Korea,[6] Persian pashmaki, which gave rise to the Turkish pişmaniye.[7] It is usually cube-shaped or served as flakes, and has a crisp and flaky texture. Traditionally sold loose in rolled paper cones, modern industrial production has led it to being sold in the form of tightly formed cubes.[1]
