Description

Khada masala keeps the spices whole, so the aroma unfolds as your pot cooks. Bloom a little in ghee before building a curry, or add it to biryani and korma. Want your own finishing powder? Toast and grind a portion. One blend, with room for your kitchen to make it its own.

Bloom it in ghee. Let the pot do the rest.

How to use

Add a little whole masala to warm oil or ghee and let it become fragrant before continuing.
Let the spices cook with rice or a gravy, then remove larger whole pieces before serving.
For a powdered mix, toast gently if needed, cool completely and grind to your preferred texture.

Quick tip: If you prefer to remove whole spices easily, tie them in a food-safe muslin pouch for a simmered dish.

Questions about our lab results

What does lab tested mean?: The report names the product sample, the checks carried out and the result of each check. Different products need different tests, so the full report tells you exactly what was covered.
What does below quantification limit mean?: It means the amount was below the level the test could reliably measure as a number. It does not mean zero. The report gives the test’s limit.
What does volatile oil tell me?: Volatile oils contribute to a spice’s aroma. This test measures the oil content; it is one quality measure alongside the other checks in the report.
Why is moisture checked?: Moisture is the water present in the sample. Measuring it helps assess the product’s condition and suitability for storage. It is not a shelf-life guarantee.
Are curcumin and curcuminoids the same?: Curcuminoids are a group of compounds that includes curcumin and contributes to turmeric’s colour. A curcuminoid result should not be presented as a separate curcumin result.

Product FAQs

A few things you may want to know

Still have a question? Talk to us.

Is this whole garam masala or powder?

This is a whole-spice mix. Use it intact to infuse rice and gravies, or grind it when your recipe calls for powdered masala.

When should I add whole garam masala?

Add it near the start so the spices can flavour the oil and cooking liquid. Keep the initial frying brief to avoid burning.

Can I grind the whole mix myself?

Yes. Toast gently if your recipe needs roasted spices, then cool fully and grind. Use a grinder suitable for whole spices.

Should I remove the spices before serving?

Remove larger pieces when practical, especially from rice and simple gravies. Whole spices add aroma during cooking but are not always pleasant to bite into.

Can I use it instead of garam masala powder?

The whole mix and powder behave differently in a dish. Grind the mix if needed, and follow a recipe suited to the form you are using.

How spicy is it?

This mix builds spice flavour as it cooks; the amount used and other ingredients decide the finished dish.
