INTRODUCING: MAHUA ICE CREAM SANDO 🍨🍞
Mizu’s sweet ode to the Japanese sando and the mighty mahua flower 🌸
Crispy, nutty, and wildly aromatic, our special mahua-infused Shokupan bread gives way to lusciously sweet vanilla bean ice cream, while a glossy mitarashi-style, white shoyu & Mahua flower glaze adds the kind of sweet–salty depth you find in classic Japanese wagashi. Then comes the miso–mahua ketchup: fragrant and rich, it nudges the whole dish into a new dimension.
Mahua (Madhuca longifolia) is an indigenous blossom beloved across the Indian subcontinent. Traditionally dried, brewed, cooked, and even pressed for butter, it’s a climate-resilient tree that has nourished communities for generations. Its blossoms are naturally sweet and nutty, making them a dream ingredient for pastry and glazes.
At Mizu, we have always strived to champion ingredients from the Indian subcontinent and process them the Japanese way—precision, restraint, and deep respect for seasonality.
The Mahua Ice-cream Sando is our way of honoring a storied local ingredient through Japanese techniques as part of the 7th edition of the Wild Food Festival.
Arigato to .in and for providing an essential platform for the celebration and preservation of indigenous ingredients. It highlights the vast diversity of native produce and the deep significance of wild foods in India’s culinary heritage, propelling us toward a localized, sustainable, and culturally respectful food system.
