Traditional Chutney Powders and Pickles

These pantry staples are the secret to a quick, comforting meal when you do not have time to cook from scratch. We prepare our Chutney Pudi and Uppinakaayi using the same traditional Brahmin recipes I grew up with.

For our Chutney Pudi, we use high quality Dal, dried coconut, and Byadgi chillies to balance the spice, sweetness, and tang. The distinct aroma comes from a generous tempering of hing, which we add carefully to ensure it is not overpowering. You can choose from three main varieties:

• Dal Chatnipudi: The classic, protein rich staple.
• Shenga Chatnipudi: Earthy, nutty, and perfect with idli or dosa.
• Karibevu Chatnipudi: Packed with the deep flavor of fresh curry leaves.

Everything is packed in air tight pouches to keep the moisture out and the crunch in. Because we do not use any preservatives or commercial fillers, the shelf life is shorter than store bought options, but the flavor is entirely different. Keep these jars handy to add a burst of flavor to your idli, dosa, or a simple bowl of rice. We recommend transferring them to a glass jar once you receive them to keep them at their best.
