Kitchen Treasures Easy Palappam Podi 1 kg

The package contains an additional sachet with a white powder inside which is unlabeled. The recipe or instructions outside do not mention anything about this sachet or how to use the contents (or not). This could be a vital ingredient like yeast, or a preservative to keep the freshness. Without any idea what it is, it is difficult to decide whether ingredient to add, or preservative to avoid

This is horrible instructions. If you follow the directions, your batter will be too thick that you cannot twirl it around in the palappam chatti. Then if you add water to thin it out, the appam goes flat. Never buying instant palappam again.
