Shan Tandoori Masala 50g

Shan Tandoori Masala 50g in Thailand

Shan Tandoori Masala brings the legendary dining experience of South Asian tandoori cuisine right to your kitchen. Historically perfected inside high-heat cylindrical clay ovens (tandoors), tandoori cooking relies on a deeply penetrating marinade combining tart yogurt, fresh lemon juice, and a robust spice matrix that protects meat against high roasting heat while sealing in natural juices.

Shan’s formulation balances smoky paprika, aromatic cumin, and piquant garlic to deliver the classic flavor profile enjoyed in the world’s top South Asian restaurants.

Key Flavor & Roasting Highlights

• Vibrant Crust: Natural sweet paprika and red chili deliver the signature tandoori crimson color without artificial food dyes.
• Juice Sealing: Binds with yogurt and oil to insulate chicken breasts, thighs, or whole birds against drying out under high heat.
• Vegetarian Versatility: Spectacular when used to marinate paneer cubes, whole cauliflower, or firm tofu.
• Pure Formulation: Zero chemical preservatives, animal fats, or artificial flavor enhancers.
