Anardana

Anardana is made from the hand-picked pomegranate seeds which are dried and then finely ground in some recipes. The dried pomegranate seeds bring a distinctive pomegranate sweet-sourness to the Indian way of cooking and can be described as being fruity yet sour in flavour. They are used in north Indian savoury dishes using vegetables and legumes and are great to use for Indian street food style dishes and snack such as veg pakoras and chaats. It also adds a rustic sour taste to chickpea dishes. The seeds contain dietary fibre, vitamin C and calcium. They have been proven to help diabetes and blood pressure.
