Shrikhand
Shrikhand
Shrikhand is a semi-soft sweetish – sour whole milk product prepared from lactic fermented curd. The curd (dahi) is partially strained through a cloth to remove the whey and thus produce a solid mass called chakka (the basic ingredient for shrikhand). This chakka is mixed with the required amount of sugar, cardamom, nutmeg (jaiphal) etc. to yield shrikhand.
