Bengali non veg is just another level.the items just dont end.... ultimate One episode is not enough,its heaven

[@vishalbasu4628]

Absolutely... ❤

[@ahmedtanvir346]

she being such a celebrated person but yet to have such humility and humble nature ...and the way how she described all the foods and culture around food in kolkata and her family is so endearing ...

[@survandita.lilianberi6951]

I am married to a punjabi but I am a v proud bengali ....no place like kolkatta. And I second everything kaushakiji has said about bengalis .

[@subhasisghatak5124]

Wow! The way Kaushiki ma'am explained subtle preparation procedures of those exclusive Bengali dishes, is amazing. The conversation is awesome. Loved very much to know that Kaushiki ma'am is also a connoisseur of Bengali food as well. Abhishek, perhaps you will cherish the tastes of those dishes forever. Thank you.

[@subramanyandakshinamoorthy2477]

Have deep admiration for Kaushiki, hands down, perhaps the best singer in the current Era. A small correction, Kaushiki, Tamil cuisine also makes use of plantain flowers and even the inner bark. All over India, traditional cuisine use plant, leaves, fruits, stem, bark and etc...meaning nothing is wasted

[@HR.ASHOOK]

*SHUKTO* & *POSTO* these are the Nostalgic food for Bengalis in india or abroad wherever bengalis living..

[@nawalkhan2116]

So happy to see my favourite Kaushikiji on TUS. Couldn't get my eyes off her. So down to earth and so passionately explaining about Bengali food. Delight to watch this video.

[@ashokojha7184]

Bengali food cooked under proper supervision becomes tastier from all accounts.Nevertheless, a good host who has explained intricacies involved during cooking deserves a big round of applause.. Superb..

[@gargisharma5044]

This video is just amazing . wonderful Aaj bangali food dekhkar apne aap ko control karna muskil thaa😋 I am proud of you bangali culture ko itne sundar se aapne dikhaya hai man Khush hogaye aapne bangaliyo ka dil jeet liya thank you sooooo much..... Good luck and All the best 👍🤗❤️❤️

[@himadri17]

Thank God you sat with a true bengali to talk about Kolkata. Yes, its luchi and not puri. We generally find it very derogatory when we are offered atta ke puri. 😂 Fantastic videography, fantastic narration and presentation. Keep it up.

[@ushashimukherjee83]

There should be a part 2 with kosha mangsho, chutney, papad, roshogolla and mishti doi....bengali meal is incomplete without dessert and sweets

[@HR.ASHOOK]

O my god really u have very good choice of bengali foods..

[@jayabchat]

Totally agree

[@arpitabose6470]

খুব খুব ভালো লাগছে, কলকাতা এসেছিলেন দেখে। একটু খারাপ লাগছে, miss করে লেগাম। "মাছ,মিষ্টি,মিউজিক" this one is best ❤

[@thirst-t2653]

Omg..she explained Potol er Dolmaa so well...my mouth is already watering !

[@arbhowmik]

Enjoyed, very honestly the way she described is absolutely the bengali tradition of food culture on a daily basis. I think Musterd Hilsha curry and Mutton curry or Mutton kosha are missing in the table, Even the cooking of egg curry has its individual style too. At our home egg curry is a common dish once a week. Lovely.

[@vishalbasu4628]

This is the best video.. usually we Bengalis fix the food menu for the dinner or lunch while having breakfast we are crazy for food.. and this foods basically from West Bengal side called Ghoti foods..u should try some East Bengal side food what we called BANGGAL food as bangaal i love our bangal food

[@sevencolours7026]

I can't think of any Bengali delicacy that has a 'ghoti' origin!😢

[@ArnabBhattacharyya49]

What an explanation from kaushiki di. but the tragedy is”this man ato kichu sune bari giye sei rajmai chatbe”

[@ProbashiCouple]

My two elder cousin sister Swagata Das and Sangeeta Das are close to her and Ex Classmate during music degrees. Also former student of her father Pandit Ajoy Chakraborty and now my two sisters are taking care "Shrutinandan" academy made by Ajoy Sir.

[@mahuabhattacharya8660]

Omg...such a beautiful video. She added so much value and elegance to this.

[@biswabose8577]

Video is very good and enjoyed watching ❤❤ Just a request to all Bengalies and other Indians alike - VICTORIAN era BENGAL was no glory. We should stop using such statements unless we loved how the handful of Racist Englishman treated us as savages and unappropriated Bengals resources and finally resulted in partition of Bengal. 🤦‍♂🤦‍♂ That does not mean we should not preserve the buildings of that era but dont Romanticize a brutal Foreign rule.

[@tamals22]

Foreign ? who is foreign ? Hindi speakers are Not Foreigners ? 2) Brits have given rail howrah bridge Passed the Widow remarriage bill Womans Education bill Sati abolishing Bill To stop the ill practices and Gave birth to spcial renaisance . Stop Commenting from out of bengal . It seems you havent frwon up in Kolkata . Probashi Bengalis are Stamped as Haples Cultureless Duplicate Bengali

[@sulaganabiswas]

History is never black and white like fascists want it to be. And many strands of life make the past bittersweet always. So it is with any part of history and life itself

[@alex_2020]

Totally agree! English Colonialism destroyed bengal and resulted in genocide of Bengalis in the famines of bengal orchestrated by Winston Churchill, the terrible and a proven bigot and the first perpetrator of Bengali genocide before the Pakistani Army!

[@SuparnaBanerjee-cm5dy]

@@alex_2020 The Bengali was the shadow of the Englishman,his secretary,his interpreter,his guide n naturally resented by locals who couldn't worm their way into the Englishman's confidence..but he was also a rebel being better educated n able to foresee the rulers' wiles n strategies...so we should try to be more objective when dealing with our latest rulers n oppressors,as b4 centred in Delhi and trying their best thru language imperialism n otherwise to impose their will upon us,persecuting us in subtler more modern ways..

More important is there would not have been a modern LONDON also if not possession of Bengal and Kolkata for 150 years by the British. ☺☺ Read journals of British bankers in London during East India company rule. narrating how Indian resources from Calcutta dumped into London to finance the grand city of London.

Note the way Kaushiki pronounces Kolkata @ 4:15. To help our non-Bengali viewers with the right pronunciation, pronounce it as "Coal"kata, exactly the way one pronounces coal and then immediately add kata and you get Kolkata

[@antarabanerjee8119]

When some non Bengali enjoys Bengali food I feel so proud of being a Bengali where I can taste it everyday

[@lovealways729]

I love Bengalis, love the culture, probably South, Maharashtra and Bengal are probably the only bastions of intellect remaining, who read/write voraciously... however I am sad to say I do not like the food at all, but it is interesting for sure...

Looking at Koushiki, she looks like frugal eater. You should have relished Desh raga instead.

[@pallavisreetambraparni6995]

I don't know. I like kaushikiji's singing. But, if she's eating non vegetarian food, even fish, I don't know how I will be able to listen to her singing any Hindu god songs. That's just me and my principles because I believe that our "bhagawan" is totally pure and when anyone sings or plays an art form like our "Shastriya Sangeet" one should try offer it with as much purity both from inside and outside as much as possible because it's almost equal to doing pooja in my opinion. Of course, this is just my humble opinion. 🙏🙏🙏

[@pallavisreetambraparni6995]

And even the great ustad zakhir hussein, ( great tabla artist) even though he's actually Muslim, he has said in an interview that he's been a vegetarian for a long time as a respect for the devine art of " Sangeet"

[@im350]

Really? In that case you should know eating non veg is nothing infact the songs she sings are actually coming from Muslim Gharana...she and her father continuing the Gharana of a Muslim Guru but still she sings hindu God's bhajan as well..now you decide you still want to hear her or not.

[@pallavisreetambraparni6995]

@im. Okay thanx so much. I am a student of Hindustani classical vocal. And the gharanas I am focused on learning are mehwathi, gwalior, Jaipur-Atrauli and Kirana. Both pundit jasraj( mehwathi gharana) and pundit bhimsen Joshi( Kirana gharana) were vegetarian although pundit bhimsen Joshi used to drink alcohol but later on, he gave that up. And I definitely focus on styles of ganathapaswini Mogubai kurdikar ( mother of Ganasaraswathi Kishori Amonkar) Ganasaraswathi Kishori Amonkar, and her lineage, pundita ashwini bhide dheshpande and shruthi sadolikar khatkar of Jaipur-Atrauli gharana and pundita veena sahasrabhuddhe of gwalior gharana. Most of these female artists WERE and ARE vegetarian. It's just an opinion that's all. My heart and conscious won't allow it, if I were to consume any form of non vegetarian food and then sing about a hindu god or hindu goddess.

[@pallavisreetambraparni6995]

@ IM I've been a vegetarian all my life
