Shukto or Shuktoni is a Bengali cook's most well-kept secret. A mix of fresh summer vegetables ranging from raw bananas to radish and of course, bitter gourd, lightly cooked in milk, this is a dish that's perfectly representative of the delicacy that characterises Bengali cuisine.
The light touch required for a perfect shukto is a matter of years of practice and rather difficult to achieve. Sunrise Shukto Masala has been brought to the market just for this reason. So that any Bengali away from their mother or away from home can still savour shukto when they feel like it.
