Cooking Tips – Garam Masala
Garam Masala is an Indian and Pakistani spice mix. There is no “recipe” as such, you could speak to 10 neighbours in a city in India, and all 10 will have their own special blend that is a secret of their own family.
We like this blend below. It really should be used the day you grind it for maximum flavour, but there is no harm in storing it in a well sealed jar away from sunlight.
