What should I cook for the Shradh Bhoj meal?

Answered by Prakhar Porwal ·

A complete Shradh Bhoj typically includes: kheer (rice pudding in cow milk), puri (fried in cow ghee), kaddu ki sabzi (pumpkin without onion/garlic), til dal (sesame lentil soup), rice, chapati, and fresh seasonal fruits. All cooking should use rock salt and cow ghee. Sesame, barley, and honey are especially auspicious for ancestral offerings.
