Sambhar Masala

South Indian comfort, in a spoonful.

My Sambhar Masala is a soulful mix, crafted with meticulously toasted lentils, earthy turmeric, pungent asafetida, and fiery chilies. Toasted just right and ground fresh in small batches—this one’s all about depth, balance, and that unmistakable profile of sour tanginess punctuated by savory, lingering warmth. This complex blend offers the perfect authentic South Indian finish.

How to use:

Add a spoonful to your sambhar just before the final simmer, or stir it into rasam, stews, or even lentil soups for a South Indian twist. It shines in this classic Sambhar recipe—coming soon to Indian Simmer.
