History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Across India📅 Street-food tradition🌽 IN

Corn arrived in India from the Americas in the 16th century, and roasting it over coals quickly became a street tradition.

When the monsoon rains arrive, vendors fan their charcoal braziers on every street corner, and a hot bhutta becomes the snack of the season.

⭐ Why It's Famous

Smoky, sweet, sour and spicy all at once, bhutta is the simplest street food and one of the best.

💡 Fun Fact

Indian street corn is traditionally a starchy variety with a chewier bite than the sweet corn common in the West.
