Bhang paranthas are large round breads of wheat dough stuffed with crushed or powdered roasted cannabis seed, baked in an earthen oven or shallow-fried in a skillet. The botanist G. K. Sharma recorded them in the Indian Himalayas in 1977 among the ways of using cannabis he had seen during his ecological fieldwork there.[1]: 206–207
Sharma called the paranthas an extremely popular delicacy. The adults of a family ate them like ordinary bread, and some people grew cannabis of the quality they wanted on private plots to make them.[1]: 207
