Hello Alonna,
Glad to hear that you are enjoying my recipes.
This Garam masala powder recipe is a staple one that is used in Indian households. Homemade garam masala is made with black cardamom and mace, but the store-bought brands skip these spices due to their strong flavor quotient.

Hi Ruchi,

I love your website and recipes. I know that each region of India has their own spice mix. Is this GM from somewhere specific? North or South India at least? I am finding it a challenge to find “my” own GM given that I have no Indian ma, or grandma. The one I’ve been using (homemade) doesn’t have any black cardamom or mace in. On the other hand it has fennel. It is hard to taste by itself and when tasting in a curry there are typically lots of other tastes going on.

Thanks for your thoughts!
Alonna

In reply to MrsG. Thank you so much, Mrs.G means a lot! 1/2 teaspoon of powdered mace will be enough.
