• Cook on the stovetop on low flame.
•  While roasting the dry fruits and seeds do not worry if there is no clarified butter the fried edible gum has enough.

Frequently asked Questions:

• What is Gondh?

  

  Edible gum is also Edible Tragacanth Gum. Locally it is called Gondh, Antu, dink, Gond Katira, Edible Gondh, Gund, Gaund. Gondh is pearly translucent crystal pieces. Gondh is a resin that is extracted from certain trees. It is cooked before eating. 

• Is edible gum good for health?

  

  Edible gum or gondh is part of winter food in the Indian subcontinent. Since edible gum is considered to be able to generate heat it is eaten in the cold winter months. There is also evidence that edible gum helps strengthen bones and provide calcium so it is also considered to be food for lactating mothers and it is recommended during pregnancy. Gondh is also excellent for people with lung-related issues.

• How do you eat edible gum?

  

  To consume edible gum you need to fry it. It is fried in hot clarified butter. Add a few of the crystals of the edible gum and fry it on a low flame. The edible crystals edible gum crystals immediately bloom. Flip them once so that they have cooked from all sides.
