What Is Mint Seasoning and Why Choose Orika?
Mint seasoning (often called pudina seasoning) blends refreshing minty brightness with balanced savory notes so you can finish dishes in seconds. Orika’s version is carefully crafted for everyday usability—fine, even texture; clean aroma; and just-right salinity—so it complements rather than overwhelms. A tiny sprinkle brings the vibe of fresh mint without the chopping. Curious about mint as a herb? See a general overview of Mentha (mint) for botanical background.
