Chaat Masala

If you want to try something really different, this blend is for you. This traditional Indian masala is used to season fresh fruit, steamed vegetables, and yogurt based salads called "raitas". Its unusual tangy flavor comes from anardana (dried pomegranate seed), amchoor (powdered green mango), and black salt.

Unlike most Indian spice blends that require cooking to release their flavors, Chaat Masala is used as a condiment seasoning and is sprinkled directly on foods at the table or snack stand.
