FAQs
What is Kokum used for?
As a souring agent, chiefly in Konkan and coastal cooking - solkadhi, fish curry, dals and cooling summer drinks. It gives a fruity sourness quite different from tamarind.
How do I use Kokum in cooking?
Soak two or three pieces in warm water for ten minutes and add both the rind and the soaking liquid towards the end of cooking. Remove the rind before serving if you prefer.
How is Kokum different from tamarind?
Kokum is fruitier and lighter, and it does not darken a dish the way tamarind does. It also has a faintly astringent edge that suits coconut-based gravies.
How should Kokum be stored?
Airtight and dry, away from light. Properly dried kokum keeps for a year or more; it should stay pliable rather than turning brittle.
Is salt or oil added to Kokum?
Kokum is often cured with salt during drying, which is traditional. Ask at the counter about the current batch if you are watching your salt intake.
Is Kokum suitable for daily cooking?
Yes, it is used routinely in Konkan and coastal kitchens as the everyday souring agent, in much the same way tamarind is used elsewhere.
What makes Kokum from Miller Stores different?
It is sun-dried and sorted rather than treated to look uniformly dark, and sold in small quantities so it stays pliable rather than drying out to brittle chips on a shelf.
What our customers say
Firstly, the welcome was so cool and unbiased — I didn't see anywhere oil and spices getting ready in front of us like here. You can see the oil getting prepared in front of you, which made it so comforting and reliable. The oil, spices and mirchi powder I bought were too good and tasty. Staff has great knowledge about the food sector.
They offer a great variety of fresh produce, cold-pressed oils, grains and eco-friendly products — all at fair prices. Clean store, timely delivery, and excellent product quality. Both Shashi and Kiran have demonstrated very friendly customer experience. Highly recommend their freshly made cold-pressed oils!
