The traditional spice box (masala dabba as it is known in India) is a must have in every Indian kitchen. It is to an Indian cook what a color palette is to an artist. The round stainless steel box contains one spoon to use with the spices and seven stainless steel spice cups. The box has two lids - an inner plastic lid to keep spices fresh and an outer lid that serves as the cover.
The box comes with the following spices:
- Cumin seeds
- Turmeric
- Mustard seeds
- Whole garam masala
- Red chile powder
- Fennel seeds
- Coriander powder
Integral to cooking year round, spices are supremely important to have in your pantry. It's impossible to imagine many dishes without their distinctive spices and seasonings. Whether you would like your dish flavored bold or subtle, spices add a taste dimension to meals that is simply irresistible.
Spices enhance the natural properties of foods and are an important part of the complex and magical flavors of ethnic cuisines. Spices are high in flavor yet low in fat, calories and sodium offer the opportunity to explore new tastes.
