FOREWORD

This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalizedby the Spices and Condiments Sectional Committee had been approved by the Food andAgriculture Division Council.

Dry kokum rind is used as an acidulant and colourant. The dry rind is made from maturefruits of Garclnia indica, commonly known as kokum or brinda or punam pull. Selected fresh.sound and ripe kokum fruits are washed and split opened longitudinally to remove seeds along­with pulp. 10 percent common salt is added to the seeds alongwith pulp for juice extraction.The rind pieces are then dipped in this juice solution for 10·IS minutes and sun dried. Thisprocess is repeated for about 5·7 times and finally dried.
