Sparsh Masala – Indian Spices

Make Diwali Prep Easier with These 5 Festive Food Hacks

Diwali is one of the most cherished festivals, celebrated with lights, decorations, and, of course, delicious food! But with all the dishes to prepare, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. To make things simpler, here are five festive food hacks that will save you time and effort this Diwali. With Sparsh Masala spices, baking powder, and other products, you’ll have everything you need to make your Diwali prep easier, quicker, and tastier!

1. Pre-Mix Your Spice Blends for Quick Cooking

Diwali dishes are known for their rich, complex flavours. Instead of adding each spice separately, make your own spice blend ahead of time using Sparsh Masala’s high-quality spices. Create mixes like garam masala, chaat masala, or a custom blend of cumin, coriander, and chili powder for easy seasoning. Simply store these blends in small, airtight jars, and when you’re ready to cook, just add a spoonful to your dishes.

Pro Tip: You can also make custom blends for specific dishes, like a special spice mix for biryani or a quick seasoning for chole.

2. Use Baking Powder for Crispier Snacks

If you’re making crispy treats like pakoras, bhajis, or Diwali snacks like namak pare and chakli, adding a touch of Sparsh Masala Baking Powder can do wonders. Baking powder helps create a light and airy texture, making your snacks crispier and less dense. For batter-based snacks, add about 1/4 teaspoon per cup of flour. This little hack will give your fried snacks that professional crunch without any extra fuss.

Fun Fact: Sparsh Masala Baking Powder is double-acting, meaning it works both when mixed and during cooking, ensuring that perfect crispiness

3. Make Quick No-Bake Desserts with Custard Powder

Diwali is incomplete without sweets, but making traditional sweets can be time-consuming. Sparsh Masala Custard Powder can help you whip up easy, delicious desserts without the need for baking. Use it to create fruit custard, layered trifles, or even a no-bake custard cheesecake. Just mix the custard powder with milk and sugar, cook until it thickens, and let it set with your favourite add-ins. Your guests will love these desserts, and you’ll save hours in the kitchen!

Pro Tip: Add a pinch of Sparsh Masala’s cardamom powder to your custard for an authentic, aromatic flavour that feels festive.

4. Use Badam Milk Powder for Richer Sweets and Beverages

Badam milk is a Diwali favourite, but Sparsh Masala’s Badam Milk Powder can go beyond just making a drink! Use it to add almond richness to sweets like kheer, badam halwa, or even homemade barfi. Just add a spoonful to the recipe, and you’ll get that extra creamy, nutty flavour without having to grind almonds. It’s also perfect for festive beverages like badam chai or saffron milk that you can offer to guests.

Time Saver: Sprinkle Sparsh Masala Badam Milk Powder over sweets as a garnish for a beautiful, flavourful touch!

5. Plan Ahead with a Snack Platter for Guests

Diwali brings guests and family gatherings, which means you’ll want to have snacks ready at all times. Instead of preparing individual snacks each time someone arrives, create a Diwali snack platter filled with easy-to-make, shelf-stable treats. You can include spiced nuts (seasoned with Sparsh Masala spices), crispy namak pare, and herbed chakli. This way, you’re always ready for guests, and you’ll spend less time in the kitchen during the celebrations.

Bonus Hack: Make small packs of snacks with Sparsh Masala’s dried herbs and spices as take-home gifts for your guests
