Organic Garam Masala

Ingredients: Ground Coriander, Ground Cinnamon, Ground Clove, Ginger

Origin: Various Non EU/ Blended in the UK

Organic Garam Masala is a wonderfully fragrant combination of spices which makes a delicious Indian curry. The word 'Garam' means 'warm' in Hindi and 'Masala' means 'mixed spice'.  Although 'Garam' means 'warm', this does not indicate that garam masala is spicy, more that it has warming properties in its unique spice mixture.

The spices used in garam masala vary depending on the region of India the mix hails from – our organic Garam Masala is a delicious blend of coriander 70-80%, cinnamon 10-20%, clove 1-5% and ginger 10-20%.  This mixture offers a great range of minerals and nutrients due to its combination of herbal ingredients.

If you are new to Indian cuisine and want to experiment with organic spice blends then this is a simple place to start.  If you want to try making your own blends then build a basic spice rack with organic coriander, organic cumin, organic nutmeg, organic cardamom, organic black pepper and organic chilli.
