CONT

L’amchoor est de la poudre de mangue verte séchée au soleil. Elle convient bien aux plats dans lesquels on veut ajouter une touche d’acidité sans pour autant ajouter du liquide, comme du jus de citron ou du tamarin. On l’utilise aussi avantageusement dans les marinades et les sautés, car elle a la propriété d’attendrir les viandes.

OBS

Mangifera indica : nom scientifique de la plante dont est tirée l'épice.
