About Podina Kohi / Pahari Podina (Spearmint)https:

Spearmint, called Podina Kohi or Pahari Podina in reference to its association with hilly/mountainous growing regions, is one of the most widely used mint varieties across South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine. Its name comes from the pointed, spear-like shape of its leaves, and its flavor profile is notably milder and slightly sweeter than peppermint, which contains higher menthol content and a sharper, cooling taste.

This gentler flavor makes spearmint especially popular in South Asian cooking, where it’s a key ingredient in the beloved mint chutney (podina chutney) served alongside countless dishes, as well as in refreshing summer drinks and traditional herbal teas enjoyed across the region.
