WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT DAHI Pomegranate

Raita is super simple, easy to make. With minimal pantry spices, raita can be prepared within 2 minutes. Thick creamy curd is mixed with Pomegranate, blended with spices - best restaurant style Anar raita. Raitha is popular in many restaurants. If you want to make South Indian style Thayir pachadi, add the tempering and serve.

WHAT KIND OF CURD SHOULD I USE FOR Anar KA RAITA?

Always use fresh thick creamy thick curd for raita. I have used homemade curd, but you can also use sour cream or non-flavored yogurt for raita. Use thick, well-set curd or yogurt. If you have a watery curd, set aside the whey for buttermilk and separate the thick curd then prepare raita

CAN I USE SOUR CURD?

If the curd is slightly sour, skip chaat masala. Mild sour curd is fine but if the curd is sour use milk instead of water. Avoid extremely sour curd.

Can I skip milk?

Milk gives amazing flavor and texture to the raita so I would recommend it. Always use chill or room temperature milk. Avoid hot milk

SHOULD I WHISK THE CURD?

Yes, it is very important to whisk the curd well. Before adding pomegranate make sure the curd is lump-free. If whey separates or curd is lumpy it will affect the raita texture

CAN I USE ROOM TEMPERATURE CURD?

For the best flavor, I would recommend using chill curd for raita. If you are planning to mix the spice ahead for raitha keep it fridge till you serve.

SHOULD I SERVE THE Anar KA raitha RIGHT AFTER PREPARING?

Pomegranate might turn raita pinkish so I prefer adding it just before serving. If you are planning to make the raita for the party. Whisk the curd well, mix the spices and keep it ready in the fridge. Just before serving add Pomegranate and mix made.

CAN I USE PEPPER POWDER INSTEAD OF Kashmiri CHILLI POWDER?

Yes, you can use any spice of your choice. If prepared you can also add a little coriander powder

CAN I SKIP BLACK SALT?

Black Salt | Kaala Namak gives a nice flavor to the raita so I used it and very little regular salt.
