Gond Katira
Gond Katira is also known as tragacanth gum, is a natural water-soluble resin extracted from the sap of Astragalus plants. It is mostly available in the Middle East and Iran. Initially, it is a hard substance, but when soaked in water, it transforms into a cool jelly-like substance.
Due to its cooling nature, in Pakistan, Gond Katira is used as a cooling agent. In summer, it is mostly used in beverages like sherbet, falooda, and smoothies. It is also used as postpartum foods like gond laddoos to support speedy recovery after childbirth.
