岵ṣāḍ (रागषाड�) refers to a type of fruit-preparation, according to the Carakasaṃhitā Sūtrasthāna 27, and is commonly found in literature dealing with the topics of dietetics and culinary art, also known as 첹śٰ or 첹첹.—We can see the description of flowering and fruit bearing plants in Ṛgveda. But we come across the specific names of them only in the later Saṃhita and Brāhmaṇa literature. [...] Caraka states that 岵ṣāḍ should be fumigated with oil and dry ginger and some salt and spices are to be added to it before use. Later in the medieval period text Aṣṭāṅgasaṅgraha, of all the fruits, grapes were considered the best and lakuca the worst.
