AWAFI MILL Qust al Hindi Powder (Costus / Kuth) | Finely Ground Saussurea / Costus Root for Herbal Tea, Spice Blends and Cooking - 100 g | 3.5 Oz

AWAFI MILL Qust al Hindi Powder brings a classic South Asian and Middle Eastern botanical to your pantry in a convenient, ready-to-use form. Made from carefully selected costus (kuth) root, this finely ground powder delivers a warm, bitter-woody and slightly resinous character that enhances teas, spice blends, marinades, rice dishes and traditional beverages.

For a simple infusion, stir ¼–½ teaspoon into hot water and simmer briefly to let the flavour open up; for cooking, add a pinch to spice pastes, marinades or slow-cooked rice and meat dishes towards the start of simmering so its earthy aroma can integrate. Because a little goes a long way, begin with small amounts and adjust to taste.
