Rai Powder, also known as mustard seed powder, is a versatile spice made by grinding mustard seeds into a fine texture. It is widely used in Indian cooking to add a pungent, slightly spicy, and aromatic flavor to curries, pickles, and chutneys. Rich in antioxidants and essential nutrients, Rai Powder not only enhances the taste of dishes but also provides various health benefits, such as aiding digestion and boosting metabolism. It is an essential ingredient in traditional spice blends and is commonly used in tempering dals, vegetables, and savory snacks. The powder also acts as a natural preservative in pickles, ensuring longer shelf life while intensifying their tangy taste.
