Created in collaboration with Chef Preeti Mistry, this blend captures the essence of the comforting dals they grew up eating every night. Slow heat, nutty aromatics and a touch of sweet spice come together to balance and deepen the flavor of any lentil or pulse — from masoor to mung, channa to urad. To use, simply mix 1 teaspoon of the blend per cup of lentils and simmer until soft, thinning with water to your desired consistency. For added flavor, first saute onion, ginger and garlic until onion is translucent, add spices to toast, then add lentils and water. The result is a hearty, nourishing dal that’s layered with warmth, sweetness and spice — perfect on its own, with rice or spooned over roasted vegetables. For the full experience, try the Preeti Mistry Trio, which includes this blend alongside Cobanero Chili Flakes and New Harvest Turmeric — two of Preeti’s favorite seasonings to add extra brightness and heat to dal.
