Why Mithila Makhana > Generic Makhana
Mithila (north Bihar) has GI-tagged makhana since 2022. Three reasons it's superior:
- Soil + water chemistry of Mithila ponds = larger, fluffier pop
- Traditional hand-popping (fire-roasted in clay pots) gives even texture
- Cooler climate = slower drying = better aroma retention
Cheap "Bengal makhana" or "Assam makhana" is usually smaller, denser, less aromatic. If you're paying for makhana, Mithila is the gold standard.
