Green Chilli & Garlic Salt is a traditional flavoured salt (sil pisi loon/noon) from Uttarakhand that adds an extra dimension to your cooking with its vibrant colour and bold aroma. It works equally well when sprinkled over finished dishes as a garnish, giving you quick, punchy flavour without needing a whole range of separate spices.
This flavour-infused salt is a versatile seasoning that can be sprinkled 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 zest to dal tadka, raitas, cut fruits, chutneys, lassi, French fries, or for marinating paneer and chicken—making it a handy all-rounder in everyday cooking.
