What is Bun Maska
Bun maska is a beloved South Asian tea-time snack consisting of a soft, fluffy bread bun, toasted until golden and slathered generously with butter (“maska”). It is traditionally served alongside a hot, steaming cup of chai for dipping. Its comforting simplicity and rich, indulgent flavor have cemented its status as a cultural staple.
