Trivia

[Hardcore] 'Makki' is corn, 'Atta' is flour. Special flour for making Punjab's absolute winter feature 'Makki Ki Roti'. Completely different from the starch powder cornstarch (used instead of potato starch), so caution is needed not to buy the wrong one when making it yourself.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Place homemade white butter (Safed Makhan) in chunks over baked yellow corn bread, chewing the rustic sweetness along with the butter melting from heat!
