About the Product
Mint leaves, known as "pudina" in India, hold a cherished place in the country's culinary traditions. Their refreshing aroma and sharp flavour are integral to both savoury and sweet dishes across the subcontinent. From flavouring tangy chutneys and cooling raitas to infusing aromatic biryanis and teas, mint leaves lend a distinct freshness that complements spicy curries and rich gravies. Beyond their culinary role, mint leaves are woven into cultural practices, symbolising hospitality and used in traditional medicinal remedies. In Indian households, the versatile pudina is celebrated not just for its culinary magic but also for its cooling properties and cultural significance.
Mint leaves are tender herbs with delicate stems and have a distinct pleasant aroma, pleasing taste, cool after-sensation, and medicinal qualities. They are best used raw or added at the end of cooking in order to maintain their delicate flavor and texture.
