Khatta Chhuwara

Khatta Chhuwara digestive is a popular Indian "churan" or "pachak" that distinctly features dried dates (chhuwara) as its base, combined with a tantalizing blend of sweet and sour (khatta-meetha) flavors. This delightful digestive is typically made by infusing dry dates with a mix of Indian spices such as black salt, cumin, dry ginger, black pepper, and dry mango powder (amchur), sometimes with a hint of sugar or rock salt. Beyond its enjoyable tangy-sweet taste, Khatta Chhuwara is valued for its digestive properties, helping to alleviate indigestion, bloating, and acidity after meals, while also providing a burst of refreshing flavor. It's often enjoyed as a healthy and flavorful treat throughout the day, providing a natural source of vitamins, iron, and calcium.
