Sambar is more than just a dish; it’s a celebration of flavors, tradition, and culture. At Girani, we take pride in offering a range of Veg Delight Masalas, including our expertly crafted sambar powder, that helps you recreate this classic dish with authentic taste and quality.

The Origins of Sambar Powder

Sambar powder has its roots deeply embedded in South Indian cuisine. The word “sambar” is derived from the Tamil word “sambhar,” meaning “to mix.” Traditionally, this spice blend was prepared at home using freshly roasted spices, each contributing to the unique flavor profile of the dish. Over time, this practice evolved, and today, pre-made sambar powder is a convenient way to achieve that traditional taste with ease.

What is Sambar Powder?

Sambar powder is a unique spice blend that forms the backbone of the popular South Indian stew, sambar. It is a fragrant, flavorful mix of various spices that imparts a complex, aromatic flavor to the dish. The blend typically includes ingredients like coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds, dried red chilies, black pepper, turmeric, and sometimes curry leaves and mustard seeds.
