AVARA Socch

India never resisted foreign flavour & cultures.
It absorbed.

At AVARA, we seek to bring flavours which haven't been discovered. Local is a living relationship between a place, its people and the culture they define.

Indian street snacks love to travel

Pick your favorite snack.

Then let our in-house hand pounded masalas take you on a whirlwind ride.

AVARA hand-pounded masalas and stone mortar

Stone, not steel

Hand-pounded Masalas.
Cold-pressed Oils.

We pound our spices by hand and add no acidity regulators. Shorter expiry period is a conscious choice, which keeps the flavour alive.

Hand-pounded spices

Stone keeps them cool and fragrant. No added acidity regulators.

Cold-pressed oils

Groundnut and coconut oils, with ghee where the recipe calls for it.

Made in small batches

We handicraft OG farsans in our Masala Lab in small batches.

No preservative, shorter shelf life

Shorter expiry window is conscious choice for us.
