Organic Mango Powder

Organic Mango Powder (Mangifera Indica) is primarily but widely used in India. It gives food a tangy zing and fragrance of mangoes. Known as Amchoor powder in hindi, this spice is native to India. To make amchoor, early-season mangoes are harvested while still green and unripe. Once harvested, the green mangoes are peeled, thinly sliced, and sun-dried. It has a honey-like fragrance and a sour fruity flavor and is a tart pale-beige-to-brownish powder. It is used to add a fruit flavor without adding moisture, or as a souring agent, and lends an acidic brightness to the foods it is applied to.
