About us
About Karaikudi
Authentic from India, delivered in Melbourne.
Rooted in Tamil Nadu
Tamil Nadu's kitchens are known for bold, layered flavours — sambar simmering with tamarind, rasam fragrant with pepper and cumin, and kulambu rich with spice. These dishes start with good masala, and that is where our range begins.
Why "Karaikudi"?
Karaikudi is a town in the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu, known for its distinctive cuisine and its colourful hand-made floor tiles. The patterns on this site are our own designs inspired by that tradition.
Vegetables from across India
Alongside masala, we bring in frozen vegetables from different parts of India — the everyday vegetables that Indian home cooks and restaurants reach for.
