Garam masala - “The Magic Spices of Cooking………”

             

Hearty Welcome to my blog “GaramMasala”- “The Magic Spices of Cooking………”





 Garam masala

   “Garam Masala”-  is a blog, specialized in traditional Kerala Recipes (I am also interested in trying new recipes.), and healthy food practices. This blog blossomed in 2013 and taken on a life of its own created and maintained by Fousiya Faizal.
      I feel, our traditional recipes have started disappearing from our daily diet. People are running behind the junk food ( it is the food that is of little nutritional value and often high in fat, sugar, salt, and calories fast foods).  They become the victim of Habitual Diseases.

             “Eat to live, don't live to eat.”

                                                      - Benjamin Franklin.

            Basically, it means that eating should be something you do to live, get the right nutrients etc., not the place where you get enjoyment. Here, I suggest sticking on our grandma, mom and mother-in-law from whom we learnt traditional recipes. The contents of this blog come from various sources like from books, my family, friends etc.

About the contents

“Garam Masala” offers, traditional South Indian (especially Kerala, I am also interested in trying new recipes.) food recipes and healthy food practices. 

Behind the name - Garam Masala  
            Garam Masala  - 'warming spice mix' is a blend of ground spices common in  Indian and other South Asian cuisines. This easy-to-make spice blend is the heart of most Indian dishes. A combination of different spices, it probably has as many recipes as there are families in India! Here is a basic one. Once you get a feel for the taste it gives your cooking, experiment and alters it to suit your needs.

  2. Turmeric powder is a herbaceous perennial plant of ginger family. It is a tall plant which is highly branched, yellow to orange in color with the presence of aromatic rhizomes in it. Tumeric is not always used in whole dried form. Basically turmeric is used in the form of a rhizome powder and is a key ingredient to Asian dishes. Turmeric powder in India is mostly used in savory dishes but is also used in some sweet dishes.

  3. Turmeric contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory components. These characteristics may provide glow and luster to the skin. Turmeric may also revive one’s skin by bringing out its natural glow. Turmeric powder is used in face mask to provide glowing effect to the skin. For example, a mixture of Greek yoghurt, honey and haldi powder together is used as a face mask which is quite helpful in possessing a glowing skin.

You will need cumin seeds.One of the key differences between these two spice mixes is the fact that garam masala is not based on turmeric, which is the main ingredient in many curry powder variants. Garam masala is another Indian spice blend that contains many of the same flavors as those found in chaat masala.
