[4][5] This unique delicacy is prepared when sticky rice is stuffed inside young bamboo and smoke slowly.

People in the Sylhet region buy fish from these markets or catch big fish (rui, katla, chitl, gual, pabda, koi, magur) from the haors and rivers, and fry them to eat.

[3] It was seen as a shame not to offer chunga pitha, fried fish, and coconut milk/sweets or murabba, to guests or a new son-in-law at the end of a meal.

[12] The various hill tribes of Sylhet had a tradition of cutting bamboo and putting wet rice inside it.

[15] Due to the presence of excessive juice of the bamboo, the inner part of the tube is boiled in the heat of the fire.
