Garam masala

Garam masala, is a dry mixture of various ground spices, that is unique to India. Similar to the Chinese five-spice mixture or the American tobasco sauce, garam masala can be used in a variety of Indian dishes, including gravies, rice pilafs and meat roasts. This makes it a must-have condiment in almost every Indian kitchen. Traditionally garam masala is prepared by dry roasting the spices and then finely powdering it with either a mortar and pestle or an electric grinder. However, garam masala is now commercially available making it easier for the modern household.

An interesting note on garam masala!

Garam masala, used to bring flavor and enhance the taste of a dish can be used in two different ways. In the preparation of gravies and non-vegetarian dishes, the garam masala powder is usually added directly to the cooking oil or ghee (rarified butter), in the early stages of the cooking process. This imparts a strong flavor and taste that permeates the entire dish. However, during the preparation of rice pilafs or roasted meat the garam masala powder is generally sprinkled on the dish just before serving. Doing this gives the dish a strong and fragrant aroma.

What makes our garam masala special?

The preparation of garam masala requires the careful blending of the various spices in just the right proportion by weight. The wrong proportion can cause an uneven balance in the flavors with a single flavor being overemphasized. At Ameen Exports, our expert panel comprising of top chefs and food experts, have carefully selected the right proportion of the various spices that make up the traditional garam masala. These are then dry roasted to bring out their aroma before being finely ground and packed.

We take great efforts to ensure that our garam masala is the best in taste, aroma and flavor. This is achieved by sourcing our spices directly from the planters themselves thereby guaranteeing their freshness and superior quality. All further processing is then done completely in-house, in our state-of-the-art processing unit that is equipped with the latest machinery.
