Amchoor Powder (Ground Dried Mango)

Primarily produced in North India, particularly in States like Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, Amchoor is made from sun-dried unripe green mangoes. It offers a distinct tangy, fruity, and slightly sweet flavour with acidic undertones. This powder is widely used as a souring agent in Indian cuisine, adding a tangy zest to curries, vegetable dishes, lentil preparations, and marinades. It is also a key ingredient in many Chaat Masalas and adds a refreshing sourness to snacks and chutneys. Traditionally, Amchoor is believed to aid digestion and is a good source of antioxidants and Vitamin C.
