Kanda Lasun Masala, crafted by WounderFood, represents the epitome of traditional Indian culinary ingenuity. This beautifully aromatic and flavorful spice blend is a beloved staple in kitchens across the country, used to elevate a wide array of dishes. The name "Kanda Lasun Masala" stems from two principal ingredients – 'Kanda', which means onions, and 'Lasun', which means garlic in the Marathi language. This spice mix is revered for its robust and tangy flavor profile, making it an indispensable addition to the pantry of any spice aficionado.
The Kanda Lasun Masala has deep roots in Maharashtrian cuisine, a state located in the western part of India. The recipe has been passed down through generations, lending authenticity and depth to the blend. It combines numerous spices and aromatics to create a versatile and dynamic seasoning that is integral to many regional dishes.
This masala has a distinctive reddish-brown color, courtesy of the combination of powdered roasted spices and the vibrant red chili powder. The texture is finely ground, allowing it to blend seamlessly into both oil-based and water-based dishes. The fine particles of onion and garlic give it a slightly gritty feel, ensuring that every spoonful you use infuses your dish with intense flavor.

Kanda Lasun Masala is known for its multifaceted aroma and flavor. Upon opening a packet, you are immediately greeted with a warm, inviting fragrance dominated by the pungency of garlic and the sweetness of toasted onions.

This medley of flavors is then rounded off with aromatic spices like nutmeg, cloves, and fennel, creating a complex and hearty seasoning.
