Frequently Asked Questions

Is Shan Tandoori Masala different from Indian tandoori masala? Shan brings a Pakistani twist to the tandoori flavor — bolder and with a slightly different spice balance than Indian tandoori blends like Everest. Both create excellent grilled preparations, with subtle regional differences in the final character.

How do I achieve the best char at home without a tandoor? Use the hottest setting on your grill or oven (450°F+) and finish under the broiler for 2-3 minutes for a charred effect. Marinating overnight and cooking on a wire rack elevates airflow for better surface caramelization.

What is the importance of yogurt in tandoori marinade? Yogurt’s lactic acid tenderizes meat proteins, its fat carries fat-soluble spice flavors into the meat, and its proteins help the spice coating adhere during high-heat grilling — making it the essential base for any good tandoori marinade.
