Chat Masala is a quintessential spice blend in Indian cuisine, celebrated for its tangy, spicy, and savory flavor profile. This versatile mix is crafted using a combination of dried mango powder (amchur), black salt, cumin, coriander, black pepper, chili powder, and asafoetida (hing). These carefully selected spices come together to create a zesty seasoning that enhances the taste of a variety of dishes. Its tangy, salty, and mildly spicy notes are perfectly balanced, making it a go-to flavor enhancer for snacks, salads, and beverages. This masala is most famously associated with Indian street food. It is sprinkled generously over chaat, a popular snack that combines crispy puris, tangy tamarind chutney, and yogurt. Other beloved dishes like bhel puri, pani puri, and dahi puri owe much of their irresistible flavor to the addition of chat masala. Beyond these traditional uses, it is also commonly used as a seasoning for fresh fruits like watermelon, mango, and guava, as well as for roasted vegetables, yogurt, and even beverages like buttermilk or lemonade. Its ability to uplift everyday dishes makes it a pantry staple. Chat Masala not only elevates flavor but also offers health benefits. The inclusion of black salt and asafoetida supports digestion, while dried mango powder adds a dose of vitamin C and antioxidants. This makes it an excellent choice for enhancing taste while promoting gut health. To preserve its aroma and potency, chat masala should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Its vibrant flavor and digestive benefits make it an indispensable part of Indian culinary traditions and an exciting addition to any global kitchen.
