Amchoor

Available from World Spice Merchants when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

An unripe mango is dried and ground to make this yellow/brown powder used in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine. With an intensely tart flavor, amchoor is added to chutneys, pickles and some stir-fries, much as vinegar is used in other parts of the world. We've included it in our Chaat Masala blend.
