Shutki, smelly rotten fish or a Bengali's delight?

Hey guys! Well I came here after a long time, well school's opening, I hope everyone had a great summer!😃 I am sure!😛

Well I just happen to wonder right now, who likes shutki mach? Personally, my family members love it and I happen to be living in BD for 12 years and came here when I was 13 so I was pretty much used to eating it as well and now I don't get to, sadly. But actually I love it, the smell before making it is terrible. When my nanu used to make it, the smell was horrible, the exhuaster didnt work to get the smells off not even opening the doors and windows! So everyone else were to go outside the house!😆 But the after dish part is terribly tasty yumm yumm especially the bhorta part hehe...

So any khati Bengali here who likes it or like most people thinking it just smells and tastes yukk so bad?? Even my friends wonder how I eat that cause they would usually throw up😆 Anyways do share ur opinion, just trying to be more active and a fun post😉😳

BTW Wishing everyone a very happy, healthy and propersous Ramadan which starts tomorrow. I can't wait to start fasting, finally no more eatin, atleast until sunset😆! How about you guys?🤔😳

Ainun🤗

I second that! So well said....Yeah i remember my dad used to come back from office and saying, "Something Fishy smelling" so my mum used to close all the doors of kitchen....🤣🤣🤣

But i really love it, We eat it occasionally..as it's very plenty in Chittagong not every part of BD but i really like it.....my family too!👍🏼

Yeah it smells, but I love it so much. My mom cooks with with lotsa veggies and makes it too jhaal. Khete khete kanna korte hoy, tobuo khai.

Even though it smells really bad b4 its made it still tastes good after it is made so I don't mind it.

I love a plate of rice wid shutki bhorta n chorchori dal. YUMMY.

lol well i wasnt born up and bought in BD either but my family absolutely love it... infact my parents make an extra effort to make sure they go back as often as possible so they can stock up on their shutki 😆

Being born and living in chittagong for the forst 13 years of my life ensures that fact that I LOVE shutki...😛

I am not really a fan of shutki coz I can't tolerate the smell and so never tried it. My mom however loves it 😃
