Raita is a typical name of a salad or dip from the Indian subcontinent, made with yogurt, which is also known as dahi or in South Africa as sourmilk (maas) known as curd.

The word raita initially showed up in print around the nineteenth century; it originates from the Hindi language. The word raita in Bengali dialect & Hindi-Urdu is a subordinate or portmanteau of the Sanskrit word rajika, which means dark mustard, & tiktaka, which means sharp or pungent. In South India, particularly Kerala & Tamil Nadu, pachadi is known to be their traditional raita.
