Trivia

[Hardcore] No single plant/spice named 'Masala' exists; Hindi for 'mixture'. Exists like 'secret sauce' with blends varying per home, the very identity of Indian cooking.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Sprinkle not at the start but as a 'finish' right before turning off heat, directly enjoying the fresh aroma volatilized by heat!

Allergen

None
