    This year on Makar Sankranti I prepared almost all kind of desserts made of til/sesame
    seed, chikki/peanut brittle bar, laddu, and barfi with mava/evaporated milk.

    What are the benefits of consuming til or sesame seed in winters?

    Consuming sesame seeds in winters not only keeps the body warm, but also a great nutritional content, including vitamins, minerals, natural oils, and organic compounds which consist of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, manganese, copper, zinc, fiber, thiamin, vitamin B6, folate, protein, and tryptophan. Read about sesame seeds here.

    What is til bugga or til bhugga?

    Til bugga or til bhugga is sweet prepared with til, mawa (mava) and sugar in North India during Makar Sankranti and Sakat Chauth festivals. If mawa is not available then you can use milk powder as well. You can shape them as laddu or as a burfi.
