Ṣāḍaba (षाडब) refers to a type of food-preparation related with rāga, as mentioned in verse 3.30 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—The best definition of rasālā, rāga, and khāṇḍava is given by Indu. Quoting from some unidentifiable source, he says:—“A decoction of grapes mingled with śāli-rice grits, charged with honey, combined with sugar and bamboo manna, enriched with a portion of treacle, seasoned with the three spices [mace, cardamom, cinnamon], (and) mixed with dhānya rice (is) to be known as rāga; (and) as ṣāḍaba (when it is in addition) acidulated with pomegranates."
