Garam Masala is a blend of traditional ground spices and is considered the king of all masalas.
Organic garam masala is richly flavored and deliciously aromatic. It is a harmonious blend of various spices that are organically grown without the use of chemical pesticides or fertilizers.
There is no single recipe for garam masala. The blend of spices differs from region to region as well as each chef's individual preference. In Indian households, the recipe of garam masala is considered a very personal. But for the most part, garam masala will include cardamom, cloves, cumin, coriander, black pepper, cinnamon, bay leaves and nutmeg. In other variations, it may include saffron, fennel seeds, ginger, garlic, turmeric, mace, star anise, mustard seeds, tamarind, fenugreek or Malabar leaves. The spices for garam masala are first toasted to bring out more flavor and then ground together.
The word garam' implies hot' in the Ayurvedic sense, meaning to heat the body' i.e. to elevate the body temperature. As its name suggests, garam masala raises the body temperate and produces the right balance of warmth and heat needed for optimal metabolism, without which our bodies will accumulate toxins and become sluggish.
Garam masala is usually added to a dish near the end of cooking.
