Steamed sweet dumpling with grated coconut and jaggery filling inside a rice-flour wrapper. Ganesh Chaturthi staple. Editor's TableJourney pick.
Modak is Lord Ganesh's favoured offering and Maharashtra's signature festival sweet, a steamed rice-flour dumpling filled with jaggery and fresh coconut. Mumbai's sweet shops fire up modak production through the 10 days of Ganesh Chaturthi in August or September, when families order trays for daily home-puja and the visarjan procession. Chitale Bandhu and Prakash in Dadar are the canonical sources.
