What Is Maggi Masala?
Maggi masala is a tastemaker that comes along with Maggi. It is what gives the snack its signature masaledaar flavour and makes it so addictive. The masala consists of a mix of several different spices, such as cumin powder, onion powder, haldi powder, amchoor powder, etc. It is slightly on the spicy side, but you can always adjust the quantity as per your personal preference. If you make Maggi without this masala, it'll just taste super bland and won't taste as good.
How To Store Maggi Masala?
Maggi masala usually comes in small packets that are inside the Maggi noodles. This helps keep the masala fresh for a longer time. However, if you're making it at home, you must store the masala in an airtight container. This ensures it doesn't come into contact with any moisture, keeping it fresh. You can store the Maggi masala in an airtight container for up to 2 to 3 months.
