Known for its world-famous association with monsoon cravings and status as a mandatory tea-time fix in traditional high-end regional households, it represents the soulful heart of modern 'Crisp-Gourmet' innovations. The taste is intensely rich and savory-spicy, with the carom seeds providing a unique professional-grade aromatic lift. Best enjoyed hot with spicy garlic chutney.
