INGREDIENTS: Black Salt (Kala Namak), Organic Coriander, Organic Amchoor*, Organic Red Chili, Organic Cumin, Himalayan Pink Salt, Organic Ajwain, Organic Black Peppercorn.
Chaat Masala is used to season fruit and salads. The flavor is a little salty, with a bright and lighly sweet-tart element from the dried green mangos (amchoor).
Sprinkle lightly on fruits like apples, mango, and green papaya. Toss a little with green salads, or use it on the rim of a tropical drink.It’s also used to season savory dishes like potato, cauliflower, chick peas, or lentils. Think of it like salt or pepper and season to taste.
*We use ground Amchoor because dried, raw mango slices are incredibly hard to grind in a household coffee or spice grinder. That's why we decided to include pre-ground of this particular spice.

Garam Masala is perfect as a finishing seasoning to almost any Indian dish. Use it liberally or lightly - it’s really your preference. If adding to a heavier meat-based dish like chicken or lamb, you might add more to give it a more robust flavor. Stir 1-2 tsps in at the end.
You can also use Garam Masala as you would salt and pepper - to garnish anything that needs a boost of flavor. Try it on rice and lentils, in soups and stews, or even in desserts!
