60 minPaneer Cooking Tips & Techniques
Master techniques from our 40-year experience
Cutting & Preparation
Cut paneer when slightly chilled for clean edges. Soak in warm water for 10 minutes before cooking, then pat dry completely to prevent splattering. Use a sharp knife for even cubes.
Cooking Techniques
Shallow fry on medium heat for golden color. Add to curries at the end to prevent breaking. Use ghee for authentic flavor and maintain gentle heat during simmering.
Storage & Freshness
Store in refrigerator wrapped in muslin cloth. Use within 3-4 days for best texture. Freeze for up to 1 month if needed, thaw slowly in refrigerator before use.
Spice Combinations
Garam masala pairs perfectly with paneer. Turmeric adds color and health benefits. Red chili powder for authentic heat, cardamom for sweet dishes.
Milk Quality Matters
Our paneer is made from fresh buffalo milk with 6-7% fat content. This high fat content ensures creamy texture and rich flavor in your dishes.
Timing is Everything
Add paneer to hot dishes at the last moment. Overcooking makes it rubbery. For curries, add 2-3 minutes before serving to maintain softness.
