Puffed Rice

Cultural Context

This light and crunchy treat is a staple in various regional cuisines, often mixed with spices, nuts, and dried fruits for added flavor. Today, puffed rice is popular not only in South Asia but has also found its way into global snack culture, often used in cereals and snack bars.
