      Fudco Dry Dates are whole chuhara, also spelt chowra or chhuara: dates dried hard on the palm until wrinkled and deep brown, sold with their stones in. They come from Pakistan in a 375g bag. Chuhara keep for months and are a traditional part of Indian festive cooking, gifting and puja offerings.

      How to use it

      Soak the dates in warm milk or water for a few hours until they soften, then remove the stones. Simmer chopped chuhara in milk with sugar and cardamom for a warming drink, or grind the soaked flesh with nuts for dry fruit ladoo and barfi. Thin slices go into panjiri, gond ladoo and kheer, and whole chuhara are a common offering in Navratri puja thalis and Diwali gift trays alongside makhana and mishri.
