Sambar Powder
Sambar Powder is a traditional Indian spice blend used for seasoning dishes like dal and vegetable sambar.

This powder is made from roasted legumes along with spices like cumin, coriander, and fenugreek, imparting a deep, complex flavor unique to this blend.
How our Sambar Powder is made
Creating Sambar Powder is an art that starts with the careful selection of quality ingredients. Each component, from coriander seeds to dried red chilies, is individually dry-roasted to unlock its full flavor potential while preserving its integrity. After cooling, these roasted ingredients are ground to a fine powder, ensuring a smooth and aromatic blend. The proportions are meticulously measured to achieve the perfect balance of flavors. The freshly ground Sambar Powder is then carefully packaged to retain its authentic aroma and taste. This painstaking process captures the essence of South Indian cuisine in every batch, making it a culinary essential for dishes like sambar, rasam, and more.
