Dips, Chutneys and Spreads are the kins of the same family, used in different cuisines as side dishes or accompaniments to enhance the flavour and taste of a particular meal.
The word ‘chutney’ originates from the Sanskrit word ‘chatan’ which means ‘to lick’, similarly ‘Dips’ and ‘spreads’ relate to something that can be ‘dunked into’ or ‘spread over’.
They are blended versions of veggies, fruits, pulses, herbs, condiments and spices, nuts, seeds and dairy products. They can be sweet or savoury with mild or strong flavours and of varied consistency.
They are piquant preparations that can nutritionally perk up a meal by adding a few macro and many micronutrients.
