Spices Information Guide
There are about 100 spices grown in different parts of the world. Many of these are grown in South East Asia where Instant Curry's spices come from. The major spices are pepper, cardamom, ginger, turmeric and chillies. Spices are well known as appetizers and are considered vital for gourmet food preparations. They add a zest and flavor to foods. Some of them have medicinal properties, while others are used as preservatives in foods like pickles and chutneys.
The term "curry powder" refers to condiment used for making curry, formed of various materials, including strong spices, as pepper, ginger, garlic,coriander seed, etc. "Spices" refers to natural plant or vegetable products or mixtures in whole or in ground form. Used primarily for imparting flavor and aroma to foods and also for seasoning. Spices may consist of different parts of the spice plant such as fruits (cardamom, chillies), or floral parts (cloves, saffron), or berries (black pepper, juniper), or leaves (bay leaves, mints, marjoram, tejpat), or seeds (aniseed, caraway, celery, coriander), or bulbs (garlic, onion), or rhizomes(ginger, turmeric),or roots (angelica, horseradish, lovage), or kernel (nutmegs), or aril (mace), or bark (cinnamon, cassia).
It's hard to believe that spices were once a royal luxury much sought after. If you had spices you were rich! In the 16th century, the Portuguese and the Dutch sailed the seven seas in search of spices. In South East Asia they fought one another to gain control of the spice route and to bring back the mystical exotic flavor of the spices to their homeland, where they were then richly rewarded by their kings.
Today, you do not need to sail to some far-off country or go to war with anyone. Here at Instant Curry .com, these same spices that men killed for centuries ago are available at low prices & shipped worldwide right to your home. All spices are conveniently packed in their right proportions with delicious easy recipes to go along with it! No preservatives, no artifical flavoring and no MSG.
