TAJ Premium Indian Amchur Powder (Dried Mango Powder), (7-Ounce)

What would you expect dehydrated, powdered, immature mango taste like? Like this product, of course! Why substitute with lime juice, etc., when you can get the real thing?

Flavorful stuff if you need a little sour in your dish.

Added it to potato curry and it gave it the right amount of tang, but not too overpowering. Great spice for giving that something to your dish that you always feel is missing but can't put your finger on.

Perfect

I use amchur powder in all sorts of cooking, not just Indian style. I like its subtle tartness compared to the intensity of vinegar or even citrus. With that said, yes, there are differences in amchur. And I'm really pleased with this TAJ brand. It has a bright, fresh, super citrusy aroma and taste compared, at least, to the last brand that I bought. Other amchurs are more earthy; this one is, again, bright and fresh. I also like the large size bag. Due to its delicacy and fairly rapid loss of strength, I do recommend storing excess amchur in a cool place. The freezer is best for the long haul but I keep even my current, in-use, jar in the refrigerator to preserve its freshness. TAJ brand is good stuff.

Good buy

Adds a sour flavor to your curry. I balance this out with just a hint honey. Along with other spices, I get some pretty nice tasting curry!

shouldve tasted this prior to putting it in my dish.VERY bitter / sour / rancid in tastei fail to see how this helps any dish taste "light & refreshing"my premixed spice mix had this ingredient but clearly what they used was of higher quality ....which is not hard when this stuff was nearly rancid in taste
