Description

A pungent spice with a strong sulfurous aroma that mellows when cooked, delivering an onionlike savory quality. It is a fine slightly resinous powder prone to clumping. Used sparingly for tempering, dals, curries and vegetable dishes, it adds depth. Customer comments commonly mention strong potency, good value and compact packaging.
