Pure Indian Foods Ground Garam Masala
Pure Indian Foods Ground Garam Masala is the best version of this Indian spice blend that we have tasted—plus, the most bold and aromatic. The company's unique blend, based on a family recipe, has a more complex flavor and aroma than other varieties. A base of black peppercorns, cumin, delicate Ceylon cinnamon, ginger and cloves provides an aromatic spicy foundation, along with two types of cardamom pods: minty, citrusy green cardamom and smokier black cardamom. Additionally, Pure Indian Foods uses hard-to-find organic mace—the outer coating of nutmeg that has a more floral flavor and basil-citrus aroma—and woody yet brightly piquant long pepper, which is essential to Indian cooking but harder to source due to its labor-intensive harvest methods.
​Pure Indian Foods Best Hing Ever
An essential aromatic in southern Indian cuisine, hing is made from the dried resin of a giant fennel plant. It’s incredibly pungent and aromatic, but develops a mellowness and allium savoriness reminiscent of leeks or onions when bloomed in ghee, hot oil or butter. The cooking process completely transforms the hing into something garlicky and a little funky, with an almost meaty, soy-like savoriness that’s simply unmatched. The aroma is softly musky and the mouthfeel is silky smooth, since the hing incorporated into fat before it’s used. This spice is exactly what you’ve been missing when recreating South Indian dishes at home.
