Pudina Powder

Pudina powder is a dried and ground form of mint leaves, a popular herb in Indian cooking. It has a fresh, cool and slightly sweet taste, and is used in dishes like chutneys, sauces, and marinades. Pudina powder is a convenient alternative to fresh mint, which can be difficult to find in some areas. It can be used to add flavor and fragrance to dishes, and has been used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine for its digestive and anti-inflammatory properties. Pudina powder can be found in Indian grocery stores and online, and should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for maximum shelf life.
