Our organic curry powder is a blend of spices that includes turmeric, which gives it its characteristic yellow hue, and other spices such as ginger, garlic, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, cloves, mustard seeds, fennel seeds, and black pepper. This blend is also called “cari,” which comes from the word “kari,” meaning stew in Tamil.

The term “curry” was coined by the British to refer to the variety of fragrant spices used in Indian cuisine. In traditional Indian cooking, spice blends, called “masalas,” are prepared at home. Many of them are mixed with a liquid, such as water or vinegar, to create a paste or curry sauce. However, fresh ingredients and pastes did not travel well. So, when British officers of the East India Company returned to England with their fortunes, they tried to find a way to continue enjoying the cuisine they had come to love on the Indian subcontinent. The British then discovered that they could import what they loved about Indian cuisine to England in the form of curry powders. Armed with these spice blends, English chefs began recreating Indian dishes in their own kitchens.
