Dhanalaxmi Masale

We run Dhanalaxmi Masale out in Khadakwasla, specifically in the Nahur area. If you ever walk by, you will probably smell the spices before you even see the shop sign. It is a local business and we have been at this Khadakwasla Nahur spot for a long time. Dealing with masale means a lot of grinding and packing, which can be quite messy and dusty work. The air in the shop is always thick with the scent of peppers, turmeric, and all kinds of seeds. We are not some big factory with huge machines; it is just a regular place where we do things mostly by hand. The address is Khadakwasla Nahur Dhanalaxmi Masale. We have folks from all over the neighborhood coming in to get their supplies for their kitchens. It is a lot of hard work, moving heavy bags around and making sure everything is weighed out correctly on the scales. The shop is not very big, but we make the most of the space we have. Sometimes our family members come in to help out when it gets really busy during the festival season. We open up early in the morning and stay until it gets dark. Most of our days are spent just filling bags and talking to the regulars who have been buying from us for years. It is an honest way to make a living here in Khadakwasla and it keeps us busy enough throughout the whole week.
