Ginger & Garlic Salt is a traditional flavoured salt (sil pisi loon/noon) from Uttarakhand that adds an extra dimension to your cooking with its warm colour and robust aroma. It works equally well sprinkled over finished dishes as a garnish, giving you instant ginger-garlic flavour without needing multiple separate spices.
This flavour-infused salt is a versatile seasoning that can be used on salads, soups, pizzas, fried or boiled eggs, breakfast toast, and roasted vegetables. It is also excellent for rubbing onto meat before grilling or marinating, and for adding depth to dal tadka, raitas, cut fruits, chutneys, lassi, French fries, or for marinating paneer and chicken—offering endless possibilities in everyday cooking.
