Although there are many different variants of andhra sweets on the market, Pootharekulu has found a unique place forever etched in the hearts of people.
Atreyapuram
Atreyapuram is a serene village located on the banks of Eastern Godavari, Andhra Pradesh. River Godavari is one of the wealthiest riverbeds in India. Having said that, the island-shaped village is rich in vegetation, culture and has its trademark sweet called ‘Atreyapuram Pootharekulu’. Over the years, the women of Atreyapuram village have mastered the art of making the most traditional, rich and delicious sweet called “ Pootharekulu “, which is now the most sought-after sweet for every occasion in Andhra Pradesh. In Andhra Pradesh, Pootharekulu is more than just a sweet. The fame and history of Pootharekulu signify royalty, pride, heritage and no celebration is complete without a bite of Pootharekulu.
Fikana Foods believe that nothing can beat the taste when something is made with utmost care and love. The delicacy, richness and taste of Pootharekulu remain the same as it was in the golden ages.
The major ingredient for Pootharekulu is rice based and we have 4 varieties like Plain and Dryfruit with added Sugar or jaggery to make Sweet Poothareku. The rice from which the Pootharekulu is made is sourced from the homegrown paddy fields of Atreyapuram, in the banks of river Godavari, Andhra Pradesh. The beauty of Pootharekulu lies in the unique way of making. As the saying goes, God is in the details, just how the way the Pootharekulu is made needs utmost attention to every single detail in the process of making. Making of Video Link Youtube.
The rice sheets are made on inverted mud pots heated from the bottom, the temperature of the pot is constantly monitored and the liquid rice batter is swiped on the pot by a cloth forming a thin layer of Rice sheet which is then removed when the Rice sheets are fully formed and crisp. Buffalo ghee is added to the Rice sheets to bring in the flavour. The rice sheets are folded and filled with sugar, jaggery and dry fruits for the flavour and taste.
Minute details such as density of the rice batter, the thickness of the cloth and the temperate play a vital role in maintaining the consistency in the taste and authenticity of Pootharekulu. Most of all, the major ingredient in the making of Pootharekulu lies in fact that it is handcrafted with women with love who put their soul in the making of this amazing sweet just like how the old kings liked it.
The taste of Pootharekulu is just as amazing and lip-smacking as the way it is made. The thin rice sheets melt in your mouth with the flavour of the fillings complimented with a slight satisfying smell of the pot and the smoke. Every bite of Putharekulu is an experience itself.
