Bebinca, also known as bibik or bebinka, is a type of pudding and a traditional Indo-Portuguese dessert that is very popular in Goa. The story goes that a Portuguese priest was testing his culinary skills in the kitchen and ended up creating this delicacy. He used seven layers to represent the seven hills of Lisbon, Portugal. Today, some cooks take the liberty to add more layers to their liking, with some versions boasting up to 16 layers. It's a dessert that requires patience and precision, but its rich, multilayered flavor is well worth the effort.
