Garam Masala Powder
Garam masala is a traditional Indian spice blend that adds warmth, depth, and complexity to a variety of dishes. The term “garam” means “hot,” referring not to spiciness but to the warming qualities of the spices. The blend typically includes aromatic ingredients such as cumin, coriander, cardamom, cloves, black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, and bay leaves.
To prepare garam masala, the spices are dry-roasted to enhance their flavors and then ground into a fine powder. The specific recipe can vary by region and household, making each version unique.
Garam masala is often used at the end of cooking to retain its aroma and taste. It enhances curries, lentils, vegetables, soups, and marinades, making it a versatile staple in Indian cuisine. Store the powder in an airtight container to preserve its freshness, ensuring your dishes are always flavorful and aromatic.
