Biryani inside the House of Kalash is a Treat

Biryani is a preparation which is not the brainchild of one, single region of India. Rather, it has seen the arrival of various variants in the years and that too from all corners of India. For example, the north Indian Biryani is famous for its condiments and its extensive usage of Zafran. The Hyderabadi biryani is known as a Dum Biryani because it is cooked in layers of meat and rice inside a pot. Further, the biryani, once cooked, is normally dry but not so much that the throat barks for water. Then, there is of course the Bengali rendition of Biryani, otherwise known as the Pulao.

Now, controversies are part and parcel about the origins of the Pulao. Some say that it first came into being in Lucknow during the reign of Begum Hazrat Mahal while others staunchly claim that the pulao first came into being during the reign of the Pali Empire in West Bengal.

Whatever be the case, it goes without saying that the preparation known as Biryani is an extremely delicious one. Therefore, all hotels and restaurants who present this dish should know the best ways of preparing it. In Kolkata, the restaurant Kalash present at the HHI, Kolkata has mastered the art of cooking multiple variants of Biryani. It, however, specializes in Hyderabadi Biryani stemming from the time of the Nizams. The usage of different spices and herbs are second nature to the preparation endeavors undertaken at the Kalash.

Today, the Kalash at the HHI, Kolkata has become the first choice for anyone and everyone looking to enjoy authentic and utterly delicious Biryani. It’s excellence in its craft has led to the hotel having become the harbinger of luxury dining in Kolkata in an entirely different format – one that the denizens of the city will certainly enjoy for a long, long time.
