Originating from the tropical regions of India, these leaves are a staple in South Indian cuisine, offering a unique depth to dishes.

Known for their rich, buttery flavor and subtle sweetness, pecans offer a delightful aroma that evokes warmth and comfort. Their texture is crunchy yet tender, making them a favorite for both snacking and culinary uses. In cooking, pecan halves add a satisfying crunch to dishes and hold their shape well, whether baked into desserts or toasted for savory applications. They are versatile in both sweet and savory dishes, contributing richness without overwhelming other flavors.
Black Bean Garlic Sauce
Black bean garlic sauce is a savory condiment originating from Chinese cuisine, known for its robust and complex flavor profile. This sauce is traditionally made from fermented black soybeans, garlic, salt, and sometimes chili peppers, offering a pungent, salty, and slightly spicy taste with a deep umami character. Its texture is thick and paste-like, which clings well to proteins and vegetables alike. When used in cooking, black bean garlic sauce adds depth and richness to dishes, enhancing the overall taste without overpowering other ingredients.
