Raita is a staple condiment at just about every Indian table.  This condiment is great because the sour cream and yogurt has a cooling effect on the pallet when contrasted with the heat that can accompany other Indian dishes such as curries and kebabs.  Traditionally raita’s primary ingredient is yogurt, along with spices, chopped red onion and cucumber.  In our raita we combine whole milk yogurt with sour cream to give the raita richer and creamier taste.
