The use of mango powder

Mango powder mainly used as a beverage base or flavoring, is prepared by drying mango puree using one of the following methods:  spray drying, vacuum drying, or drum drying.

In Rajasthan India, the people there use mango powder, a suitable substitute for tomatoes.

When cooked, mango powder, which is known as amchur in Hindi, gives a mild, sweet and tangy flavor. Amchur is tart, light brown in color and used mainly for pickling and sometimes in stir-fries and curries.

In Indian it’s very common to sprinkle a combination of salt, mango powder, black pepper and lemon over regular fruits, such as chopped apples, pears and/or bananas.

Dehydrated mango powders can be reconstituted into juice and used as a base for preparation of products like beverages and baby foods.
