Description and Origination:
Astringency refers to the taste sensation that causes a dry, puckering feeling in the mouth. It is often associated with substances that contain tannins, such as tea, red wine, and unripe fruits. Astringency is a common characteristic in many Nepali dishes, especially those that use ingredients like raw mangoes or unripe tomatoes.
