Great video ladies. i have a question on the different between powder garam masala

and the unblend garam masala. Are there any different if these spices are cook without the blending as i saw some of the chefs in you tube just put in the whole spices in their cooking. There are some spices like nutmeg is also introduced in the garam masala you tube video and im pretty confused now as what is the real and what's not. many many tthankks

@hackwire : Well, there are a lot of folks who have different convictions and even more recipes! Having said that we will give you our opinion - we feel roasting the whole spices brings out the flavors and then last longer (hence the store bought ones are sold like that.

Whole spices when added to the cooking are more flavorful and yet can be an eye sore - so once the dish is cooked - take them out and discard them - they are difficult to consume.

We add a bit of both :) whole and ground

If you only have one grinder for both spices and coffee, throw in a little bread after doing spices and whirl. Bread will pick up and remove the spice flavors so you are cleaning out the oils.

sharing :)

India is big, and so there are more than one methods of doing things, also with Ghee there are several methods to get it. At some you have to get rid of the foam in others you let it in. Also there are several recipes for curry powder - the same with Garam Masala. You CAN'T say "this is the right method to do it" cause there is none, it's up to you which you prefer, or which "Indian way" is yours.

But I'd would say nutmeg isn't the most traditional ingredient. :)

im glad theres no nutmeg in it i think it ruins it

[ChichoAgv]
