I have a fair number of these. I know I can use them in cooking,
but
don't
know how! Do I use them whole, or crushed? Do I remove the outer
bit?
I
chewed on one today and found it very pleasant, with a hint of
lemon.

In India they are put on the table in restaurants and the customers
chew
them after the meal. I suppose they are meant to be breath
fresheners.


In Indian restaurants in Europe too.

Ahh ok. I didn't know! I don't like Indian food and so don't use
Indian
Restaurants. When I lived in India, I sometimes didn't have a
bloomin'
choice

McDs or starve )
