How different it is from a North Indian masala dabba which has mainly ground spices other than jeera! Mine, of course, is a mix of Maharashtrian and generic North Indian dabba.<BR/><BR/>I cook Southern food so often that I think I should give in and have a second dabba so I don't need to open a bunch of bottles...will definitely save time. And perhaps, a third one for Kashmiri spices too?

Kanchana, I just hopped over here from Mahanandi - I also have a anjarapetti - a 5 compartment one and absolutely love it. Your site is beautiful and informative.

Good catch Annapoorna! You are right its actually a skinned and split black lentils. I've updated the above to reflect that. If anyone wants more information on these ingredients check out the following site:<BR/>http://www.foodsubs.com/Lentils.html

Uh-oh! Urad daal is not Moong Lentil ...these are completely different!!, Unless you meant that you have both moong and udad daal in your anjaraipatti!! Urad daal is split black lentils.

So true, a well stocked kitchen makes any recipe a breeze to make. And another thing the anjaraipetti helps me in is...Having them all together in one place makes it easy to throw them into any dish without skipping one of them.
