Description
Garam masala is a popular spice blend used in Indian cuisine. This shahi garam masala powder is a special blend that can be used to add a rich, aromatic flavor to biryanis, kurma, gravies, and other dishes.
The spices used in this blend are a carefully balanced mix of different whole spices, which are roasted and then ground into a fine powder. The roasting process helps to release the essential oils in the spices and enhances their flavors and aromas. The blend is then finely powdered to ensure that all the spices are well incorporated.
When making garam masala, there are two methods you can use: raw and roasted. Raw garam masala involves grinding the spices without roasting them. This method is used when you want to add the spice blend at the beginning of cooking, as the heat of the cooking process helps to release the flavors and aromas of the spices. Roasted garam masala, on the other hand, can be sprinkled at the end of cooking, as the roasting process has already released the flavors and aromas of the spices.
While there are many variations of garam masala, this shahi garam masala powder is a perfect proportion of all the aromatics, giving it a unique scent and flavor. It is perfect for use in dum biryanis and gravies, where the complex flavors of the spice blend can really shine through.
Overall, garam masala is a versatile spice blend that can be used in a wide variety of dishes. Whether you make your own blend or use a pre-made one, it is a great way to add depth and complexity to your cooking.
