Frequently Asked Questions

What are the seven Indian spices?

Indian spices are a collection of spices used in Indian cuisine. They usually include cardamom (also known by hing), cumin, turmeric, coriander,fenugreek, ginger, and asafoetida. They enhance flavour and aroma of dishes by blending with natural ingredients like meats and vegetables. Spices create unique flavour profiles, which make Indian cuisine so distinctive.

Cardamom has an earthy, sweet flavor with notes of ginger and citrus. It is often used to flavour curries and rice dishes like biryani. Cumin has a strong, earthy aroma as well as a rich and nuanced flavor. It's often used in curries, dals, and meat dishes. Coriander has a sweet citrus aroma and adds a subtle nuttiness to dishes. It is often used to season vegetables and lentils.

Turmeric has an earthy, spicy flavour that includes mustard, spices and pepper hints. This spice is used in many dishes, including curries. It has a golden colour. Fenugreek's aroma is rich and has earthy tones. It is often used as a seasoning for meat dishes like kebabs. It is spicy and pungent with citrus hints. It can be used to spice up soups, curries and chutneys. Asafoetida (hing) has a pungent smell and strong flavor that substitutes onion and garlic in some recipes.

These spices together create unique flavors that make Indian food so special.

What are the 11 Indian spice blends?

Indian cuisine is made up of eleven spices: coriander seeds; cumin seeds; fennel and mustard seeds; nigella and black pepper; cloves, cinnamon sticks; dry red chili powder; turmeric and cardamom.

These ingredients can be found in almost all dishes. These spices lend a unique flavour to dishes such dal (lentils), curries chutneys pickles rice, bread and sweets.

For health reasons, spices are also beneficial. Turmeric, for example, is known to fight cancer cells. Bad breath is protected by cloves. Black pepper reduces cholesterol. Cinnamon lowers blood pressure. And ginger aids digestion.

A spice rack makes a great kitchen tool. It allows you to experiment with many different combinations of flavours. You can make your spice mix or buy ready-made blends that contain many of the essential spices.

Some people choose not to add spice to their food. They believe that spices only mask natural flavors and do nothing to improve them. There is nothing wrong with adding salt or pepper to enhance the flavor of your meals.

Most chefs agree that spices are a vital part of culinary art. Without spices, many dishes are bland and tasteless. If you are feeling adventurous, try out a new dish and see what happens.

Is Thai cooking made with garlic?

How To

How to decide what spices to buy?

Cooking requires you to learn how to choose the right herbs for your recipes. There are many choices. So where do you start?

There are three main factors to consider when choosing spices: flavour profile, shelf life, and cost. You can choose to use different flavour profiles depending on whether your cooking involves meat, poultry or fish, vegetables and pasta. Once you have decided on a category you will need to narrow your options based on the differences.

Also, shelf lives can vary widely. Some spices last forever, while others expire quickly. Cayenne pepper, for example, can last years while oregano, on the other hand, loses its potency within two months. Then there's the price. Spices are available in a range of prices, from $1 per tablespoon to more expensive than $100 per an ounce. This means that spice prices can vary widely.

You'll also want to determine whether you prefer organic or non-organic ingredients. Organic products are safer for the environment and contain less pesticides and chemicals than their conventional counterparts. However, they often cost more, so you'll need to weigh those costs against the benefits.

Online shopping is the best way for you to make sure that you have the right spices in your kitchen. Online retailers provide detailed information on each product, including ingredient lists, pricing, reviews, and ratings.

Once you've narrowed down the list, it's possible to order directly from the retailer. You should store your items in airtight containers, away from heat and sunlight once you receive them.
