  2. Thank you. I am glad that you liked our site.
    As far as Shazira Elaichi powder is concerned...
    Take 50 gm Shazira and 50 gm Elaichi.
    Remove the skin of Elaichi and grind the elaichi seeds and shazira together.
    Remember to weigh the whole Elaichi i.e., along with its skin not just the seeds.
