Chaat Masala

Chaat Masala

Chaat Masala is a flavorful Indian spice blend known for its tangy, spicy, and slightly salty taste. It is commonly sprinkled over fruits, salads, snacks, and street foods like chaat, pani puri, and aloo tikki. The blend typically includes amchur (dried mango powder), black salt (kala namak), cumin, coriander, ginger powder, and pepper.

This unique mix of spices not only enhances flavor but also offers several health benefits. Black salt and amchur aid in digestion and help relieve bloating and gas. The spices in chaat masala are also known to stimulate appetite and promote gut health.

Chaat masala contains antioxidants and has mild anti-inflammatory properties. It is especially popular in summer foods due to its cooling and digestive effects. Balanced in small quantities, it adds both taste and health benefits to everyday dishes.
