A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER

Every podi I make starts with my paati's recipe in our Sirkali kitchen — the same brass vessels, the same slow roast, the same chillies sourced fresh. This is the kitchen I grew up in, now in jars for yours.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Shree's Foods podis.

What is podi and how do I use it?

Podi is a Tamil heritage spice blend traditionally eaten with hot rice + ghee, sprinkled on idli/dosa, or stirred into curd rice. Take 1 tsp with hot rice + 1 tsp ghee or gingelly oil — that's the classic pairing.

How long does each podi stay fresh?

Best within 4 months of packaging when stored in an airtight container in a cool dry place. Always use a clean dry spoon. Refrigerate flax-seed podi after opening to preserve omega-3.

Are there preservatives or artificial ingredients?

Absolutely none. We use only rock salt, asafoetida (hing), and traditional slow-roasting for natural preservation. No MSG, no artificial colour, no chemical preservatives.
