Amchoor, or Dry Mango Powder as it is commonly known, holds a vital spot in the palette of Indian cuisine. This powder is produced by drying unripe mangoes and pulverizing them into a smooth powder, imbued with a tangy and fruity essence. Its natural acidity lends itself well to a variety of culinary applications.
In the realm of Indian gastronomy, Amchoor finds its way into a myriad of recipes to impart a tangy zest to curries, chutneys, marinades, and even pickles. It's also a favored seasoning for popular street food such as chaats and bhel puri. Offering a taste reminiscent of tamarind or lemon juice, Amchoor is especially prized in areas where these items are scarce or unavailable.
This versatile ingredient is recognized by various names across India, including Maangaa Podi/Maangai Thool in Tamil, Mamidikaya Pudi in Telugu, Mavinakai Pudi in Kannada, Karino Powder in Gujarati, and Manga Podi in Malayalam.
