Buy Pav Bhaji Masala Online

Hathi Pav Bhaji Masala is a mixture of 13 spices. This mixture is specially created for the famous Mumbai street-style pav bhaji. Hathi masala grinds every spice using cryogenic technology at -150°C. This procedure locks in the essential oils and fragrance. All you need to do is just add this masala to your vegetable gravy, and it will give your homemade pav bhaji an authentic street-style taste.

Sourcing and Origin

Every spice in this masala mix is sourced by Hathi Masala from its best-growing states across India. Turmeric is sourced from Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. The soil of these states produces golden-yellow turmeric with a rich flavour. Red chillies are from Guntur in Andhra Pradesh, well-known for their bright red colour and spice level. Coriander-cumin comes from Gujarat and Rajasthan. The dry weather in these states produces seeds with high levels of natural oils. Amchur is sourced from Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh. Each spice batch is evaluated for colour, smell, and purity before processing.

Why Cryogenic Grinding Matters for Pav Bhaji Masala

It contains spices with natural essential oils that give your dish its real taste and smell. Traditional grinding machines generate heat due to friction. This heat evaporates the natural oils, and spices lose their aroma and potency. Hathi Masala ground spices using cryogenic grinding. In this method, each spice is cooled down to -150°C before grinding. This procedure doesn’t generate heat and locks in all the natural oils.

How to Use Pav Bhaji Masala

Pav Bhaji (Main Dish): Mix 1.5-2 teaspoons of masala into the pan during the vegetable cooking stage. Add the masala when the onions turn golden. The spices mix with the vegetables, giving it that real street-food taste.

Potato Bhaji Only: If you want to make regular potato bhaji without pav, use 1 tsp per one bowl. Add the masala while the potatoes are soft.

Dry Bhaji for Pav Sandwich: Mix 2 tsps of this masala to make a thick bhaji you can spread on the top of your bread or pav. This amount makes the taste strong and gives you the right texture.

Instant Bhaji Paste: Use 1 teaspoon of masala, mix it with 2 teaspoons of butter, and make a paste. Spread the prepared paste on hot pav or bread. It’s a quick and tasty recipe.

Bhaji for Biryani or Pulao: You can add 0.5 teaspoon while cooking rice. It gives a street-food-style twist to any rice dish.

History & Source

History &Source

Pav bhaji, a popular Mumbai street food, has a long history dating back to the mid-19th century. Pav Bhaji, which was originally intended as a quick, nutritious supper for Mumbai's fabric mill workers, has become a popular dish across India and beyond. Over time, numerous regions and homes have added their spins on the dish, but the basic concept of Pav Bhaji remains the same: a flavourful, spicy, and delicious dinner. Hathi Pav Bhaji Masala was made to exact the original flavor of this popular food item.

Benefits in Ayurveda

Pav Bhaji Masala is high in salt, thus, it's best used in bland dishes with few additional flavors. Another advantage of using Pav Bhaji as a spice is that the sodium in it helps keep the amount of water in our bodies in balance. It also provides the necessary support for our muscles to contract effectively.

FAQ

Q1. What is pav bhaji masala, and why is it different from garam masala?

It is a masala mix created only for pav bhaji. It contains 13 spices, such as turmeric, red chili, and amchur, among others. Amchur powder adds a sour note that garam masala doesn’t. This sour taste makes the pav bhaji special.

Q2. Can I use pav bhaji masala in other dishes?

Yes. You can use it with potato sabzi, mixed vegetable curry, or rice to get a street-style taste. You can also add a pinch to raita or mixed vegetables. It works well with any dish where you want a tangy, street food flavour.

Q3. How much pav bhaji masala should I use per serving?

For 2 people, go with 1.5-2 teaspoons. If you like a strong taste, use 2 tsps. If you like a milder taste, use 1 tsp. Add more or less based on your taste. Start with 1 teaspoon and taste; add more if needed.

Q4. Why is cryogenic ground pav bhaji masala better?

Traditional grinding generates heat, which evaporates natural essential oils. In cryogenic grinding, the whole spices are cooled to -150°C before grinding. This method preserves the natural oils and aromas of pomegranate, amchur, and other spices.

Q5. Does Hathi Pav Bhaji Masala contain artificial colours or preservatives?

No. This masala mix contains only natural spices. It doesn’t contain any artificial colors, dyes, or preservatives. The taste and aroma come fully from the natural whole spices. Every batch is lab-tested for purity and safety, and Hathi Masala is certified to FSSAI and ISO 22000 standards.

Q6. How should I store pav bhaji masala to keep it fresh?

Transfer this masala to an airtight glass or steel container after opening. Keep the container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Always use a dry spoon. Best used within 8-12 months of opening.

Q7. Is pav bhaji masala the same as chaat masala?

No. Chaat masala is made for fruits and snacks like chaat, samosa, and pani puri. It contains amchur and dry ginger. Pavbhaji masala is made specifically for bhaji. It contains more turmeric and chilli than chaat masala. Don’t use one for the other.

Q8. Is this masala suitable for kids?

Yes. It is mild, not very spicy. For small children (below 5 years), use just a small pinch and mix it with vegetables early so it mixes well. For older children and adults, use the normal amount. The spices are natural and safe.
