Enduri Pitha #Mahaprasad #AToZChallenge

The food offering (bhoga/prasad) to Lord Jagannath is called Mahaprasad. 
There are varieties of Mahaprasad in the Shree Jagannatha Temple, Puri, Odisha. 
Some of them are listed in this blog post- 115 varieties of Mahaprasad.

Shreekhetra Puri is the "bhoga khetra".
It is the Dhaam where Shree Jagannatha, the Head of the Universe, eats.

In the culinary tradition of the Puri Temple, 'Chhapan Bhog' (56 Bhog) is a well-known name. 
However, the number of bhoga is much more than 56.
Enduri Pitha is a food item that is also listed. 
Three types of Enduri are mentioned namely- Enduri, Nakhyatra Enduri and Mua Enduri.
Six numbers of Enduri along with other bhog are offered every morning to the deities as the 'Sakala Dhupa'.
Yes! Each morning! 
Enduri Pitha is a part of the breakfast meal of the deities.
