Spices Featured In This Collection
Ground Coriander
Coriander is both an herb (the leaves) and a spice (the seeds). German, Pakistani, African, and Persian chefs all use ground coriander seeds to flavor vastly different cuisines. Moroccan coriander is the most commonly imported.
Garam Masala
Garam Masala, which means warming spices, comes from northern India. Instead of turmeric, this blend includes rarer spices: cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. The Spice House version swaps the standard cumin out for charnushka seeds, also known as nigella.
Ground Cardamom
Of all the world's spices, cardamom is perhaps the most difficult to describe. Flowery yet earthy, powerful yet delicate, this ground version is essential to many cuisines, especially Indian and Scandinavian. the seeds and pods are sauteed with savory meats and vegetables or added to mulled or infused beverages. In ground form it makes a lovely addition to baked goods, glazes, and dressings.
Amchoor Powder
Citrusy, tangy, and light gold in color, amchoor is widely used in the samosas, pakoras, chutneys, and pickles of North Indian cuisine. To make Amchoor Powder, unripe mangoes are harvested early, dried, then pulverized. This powder is a fine way to enjoy the flavor and nutritional benefits of mangoes when they are out of season.
