Like papad elsewhere in India, Amritsari papad is made from dough, usually of hulled [[Vigna mungo|urad daal]] flour, seasoned liberally with salt, black pepper, heeng ([[asafoetida]]), cumin, coriander, [[pomegranate]] seeds, and sometimes [[garlic]]. The proportions are highly variable, leading to a large variety in taste and pungency. The dough is rolled into wafer thin discs the size of a small plate, and sun-dried to prepare raw papad. Flours from other sources such as [[lentils]], [[chickpeas]], [[rice]], [[tapioca]] or [[potato]], are sometimes used. Dried papad will keep for several months without refrigeration. Although now done by machines, papad was traditionally rolled out by hand, requiring a fair amount of force because of the dryness of the dough—indeed, In Hindi and Punjabi, "papad belna" (rolling out papad) is still a metaphor for any laborious or arduous task.{{fact|date=December 2022}} |
