  • Pithas are a variety of food similar to pancakes, dumplings or fritters, originating from the Indian subcontinent, common in Bangladesh and India. Pitha can be sweet or savoury, and usually made from a dough or batter, which is then steamed, fried or griddled. Very few varieties are oven-baked or boiled, and most are unleavened and cooked on a stovetop (or equivalent). Some versions may have a filling, garnish, or sauce. Few may be set or shaped after cooking. They are typically eaten as a snack with chai, or as treats during special occasions (similar to mithai). Pitha is especially popular in Bangladesh and the eastern Indian states of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh (eastern parts), West Bengal, Odisha, Jharkhand, the South Indian state of Kerala, and the Northeast Indian states, especially Assam. Pithas are typically made of rice flour, although there are some types of pitha made of wheat flour. Less common types of pitha are made of palm or ol (a local root vegetable). (en)
  • Pitha (bahasa Oriya: ପିଠା, Assam: পিঠা, bahasa Bengali: পিঠা piṭha), (Sansekerta: पिष्टा, अपूप) atau fita adalah sejenis kue dari kawasan timur anak benua India, khususnya di Bangladesh serta di Odisha, Assam, Benggala Barat, Jharkhand dan Bihar di India. Pitha biasanya dibuat dari tepung beras, walaupun ada juga yang dibuat dari tepung gandum. Selain itu, terdapat salah satu jenis pitha yang lebih jarang dibuat, yaitu pitha yang terbuat dari pinang-pinangan atau ol. Pitha biasanya dibentuk dan diisi sesuai dengan kemauan. Isi pitha disebut "pur". Isinya adalah kembang kol, kubis, lobak atau kentang. Untuk pitha yang manis, isinya dapat berupa gula, kelapa atau pistacio. Pitha yang manis sering kali ditambahkan dengan rasa kapulaga. Pitha dapat digorek, dibakar, direbus atau dipanggang (tergantung pada jenis pitha yang ingin dibuat). Pitha biasanya dimakan untuk sarapan atau sebagai camilan (bersama dengan teh), walaupun ada pula pitha manis yang dibuat sebagai makanan penutup. (in)
