About the Product
Ridge Gourds are long vegetables with a ridged dark green skin and white spongy flesh that contains numerous seeds inside. Ridge gourd, known as "turai" or "turiya" in Hindi, is a staple vegetable in Indian households. Widely cultivated across India, particularly in states like Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu, it forms an integral part of the regional cuisines. This versatile vegetable is often used in a variety of dishes, from simple stir-fries to elaborate curries and dals. Its slightly bitter yet refreshing taste pairs well with spices commonly used in Indian cooking. In traditional Indian kitchens, ridge gourd is also valued for its fibrous texture, which adds a unique mouthfeel to the dishes.
