- GINGER (GROUND): This powdered
form of the ginger root is useful to keep
on hand if you don’t have fresh ginger
root or for spicing chai and stir-fry
dishes. - MANGO POWDER (AMCHUR): This
tart, beige powder is made from
uncooked, dried, unripe, and green
mangoes. It is delicious sprinkled on
Indian snack foods and in dishes such as
Crackling Okra (see recipe on page
178 ), Cumin Potato Hash (see recipe on
page 162), and Chickpea Flour Curry
with Veggies (see recipe on page 162).
In terms of taste, it functions like lemon
juice or vinegar and is usually added
toward the end of the cooking process.
