Notes
- Kala Namak/ black salt is what is normally put in chaat masala. But I personally prefer Himalayan salt. Because black salt has a strong aroma, like an eggy smell. So if you want to go for the traditional and authentic one, you can choose black salt. But if you prefer the simpler aroma of your chaat masala, I’d say choose Himalayan pink salt.
