Farsan or Pharsāṇ are salty snacks that originated in the Indian subcontinent. Farsans are consumed in Marwari cuisine, Gujarati cuisine, Marathi cuisine and Sindhi cuisine, wherein a wide variety are prepared on special occasions and to entertain guests, and are also consumed with tea. Farsan is also found throughout the rest of India, particularly Maharashtra due to the influx of Gujarati and Rajasthani traders and migration of Sindhis in Mumbai.
