Dabur Chyawanprash 1kg

Description

A kilo of chyawanprash is a household jar rather than a personal one, which is exactly how it is bought across India, where it sits at the back of the kitchen shelf and gets opened every morning. It keeps well because it is essentially a preserve: sugar, ghee and honey do the preserving between them.

Because a serving is a teaspoon, a kilo lasts a family several months, which makes the storage rule the important one. Always go in with a dry spoon. Water introduced on a wet spoon is the one thing that will spoil a jar, and it spoils the whole jar rather than the top of it. Keep the lid on tight and it needs no refrigeration.

How long does a kilo last? A family taking a teaspoon each in the morning will take three to four months over it. It keeps well over that time if the jar stays dry.

Does it need to go in the fridge? No. It is a sugar and ghee preserve and it is stable at room temperature. Keeping the spoon dry matters far more than keeping it cold.

To try it first, take the 500 gram jar, and the whole selection holds the rest of the range. Vegetarian. Keep the jar tightly closed and only ever go in with a dry spoon, because one wet spoon will spoil the whole jar.
