The untold samosa story!
Let's talk samosas – those little triangles of flavor that have somehow found a way to be the highlight of every snack platter. Whether it's a rainy day, a casual get-together, or just one of those times when only something crunchy and savory will do, samosas are the go-to.
But have you ever wondered how these snacks became such a big deal? So, let’s dive in and get to know our favorite snack a bit better.
A brief history of samosas
Believe it or not, samosas didn't start in India. They made a long journey from Central Asia before becoming the star of Indian snack time. It's like they were the original travelers, moving through trade routes, picking up different names and fillings along the way – from "sanbosag" in Persia to "sambusa" in the Middle East, and finally "samosa" in India. Each place they visited, they changed a bit, adapting to local tastes. That's probably why we love them so much; there's a version for everyone.
Samosas around the world
Apart from India or Central Asia; samosas have fans all over the globe. Globally, they're a big deal during festive seasons like Ramadan. Head over to Portugal or Brazil, and you'll find a version called "pastéis." In short, the versatility of samosas is endless – spicy meat fillings, tangy potato, and pea mixtures… There's a samosa for every taste.
Convenience in a box
Now, let's get real. We all love samosas, but making them from scratch? That's a task not everyone's up for, especially when life's running at full speed. Introducing our frozen samosas – a modern solution for satisfying those sudden cravings without spending hours slaving over the kitchen stove. They're pre-made, frozen, and ready to cook.
