But biryani isn't just another dish. It's an experience that tantalizes all parts of the palate. Coming from Persian and Indian origins, biryani has evolved perfectly in the subcontinent.
This article will explore the diversity of texture and taste of biryani. Is there a single word that can summon the taste of South Asia?
One that seizes the essence of the heat, the history and complexity of its creation, and every culture around it? That word, my dear reader, is biryani. With the texture, it's all about variety and surprise.
It's the perfect harmony of comfort that comes with the creamy and the excitement that spices can bring. In terms of taste, it again varies depending on which type of biryani you're looking for.
However, so far the world of biryani can be divided into three main taste camps: hot, aromatic, and flavorful or a mixture of any two. Traditionally, it's made with chicken. But outside of Asia, it's hard to escape the aroma of lamb biryani.
Restaurant chains, chefs, and local cuisine fans remind us of this fact frequently. The taste and texture in our biryani very much depend on the precise cooking of the rice. However, there is no fixed rule as to how the perfect biryani rice is prepared.
Some say it should be cooked with the spices and meat juice. Some say it should be cooked separately and then steamed on top of the meat. It looks like we need to experiment more with biryani meals to find the truth. And this diversity in cooking helps explain the vast differences that we encounter in biryani dishes.
