- Use a big kadai to roast else roast in batches.
- You can even grind it batches. Scrap and grind to get fine powder.
- If you find it very coarse grind for some more time.
- Always use fine sieve.
- Use clean dry ladle while scooping to extend shelf life.
- It keeps well in fridge for about 1 year.
- Dry roast only in low flame, even if it gets burnt it will not be shown because of the color so be very careful while roasting.
