Our story
Once the granary of the South, still the source of its aroma.
Garudas Foods manufactures Indian ethnic food products with traditional taste and feel — masalas, spices, pickles and instant mixes made to turn an ordinary meal into something worth sitting down for.
Thanjavur cuisine has always been about balance: heat against tamarind sourness, the sweetness of roasted lentil against the bitterness of fenugreek. Those proportions were never written down; they were passed along in kitchens. We spent years recording them, testing them and turning them into blends that behave the same way every single time.
Our technique is simply to keep tradition in the recipe and put modernity everywhere else — in the hygiene of the unit, in the certification, in the packaging that keeps aroma sealed until the pouch opens in your kitchen.
The result may not be your grandmother standing at the stove. It is the closest you can get on a weeknight.

How a pouch is made
Four steps, none of them shortcuts
01
Sourcing
Delta chillies, Thanjavur coriander, sesame and tamarind bought from the growing belts directly.
02
Small-batch roasting
Each spice roasted separately to its own point, never as one convenient mixed load.
03
Cool grinding
Ground slowly so the essential oils stay in the powder instead of burning away.
04
Sealed fresh
Packed under certified conditions with no artificial colour or added preservative.
Certifications
