Unlike spices used for flavour, Gond is prized for its unique culinary transformations and its powerhouse nutritional profile. In its raw state, it looks like small golden crystals, but when dropped into hot ghee, it puffs up instantly like popcorn, becoming light, brittle, and incredibly crunchy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Secret Pinch:\u003c\/b\u003e Never try to use Gond raw or boil it directly in liquid (it will become sticky and gummy).

Edible gum is highly sensitive to moisture; even a small amount of humidity can make the crystals sticky and prevent them from puffing up correctly when fried.
