  • Incredible Spices of India: from Traditions to Cuisine
    American-Eurasian Journal of Botany, 1 (3): 85-89, 2008 ISSN 1995-8951 © IDOSI Publications, 2008 Incredible Spices of India: from Traditions to Cuisine M.S. Rathore and N.S. Shekhawat Department of Botany, Plant Biotechnology Unit, Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur-342033, India Abstract: A spice is a dried seed, fruit, root, bark or vegetative material used in nutritionally insignificant amount as a food supplement for the reason of flavoring. Spices are defined as "a strongly flavored or aromatic substance of vegetable origin, obtained from tropical plants, commonly used as a condiment". In ancient times, spices were as valuable as metal gold; and as noteworthy as medicines and perfumes. No country in the world cultivates as a lot of kinds of spices as India with quality spices come from Kerala, an Indian state. Because of the varying climates in India-from tropical to sub-tropical, temperate-almost all spices are grown in this country. In almost all of the 28 states and seven union territories of India, at least one spice is grown in profusion. Spices and herbs are good not only for our taste buds but also for our health. They supply calcium, iron, vitamin B, vitamin C, carotene and other antioxidants. Besides herbs and spices have very low fat, so you can eat them to your hearts pleased. Rajasthan, a state of India is an important producer of spices including seed spices such as fenugreek, cumin and coriander among others. The Rajasthani chilly varieties, especially from the State's Jodhpur regions are popular not only in the country but also appeal to the taste buds of the Indian Diaspora abroad.

  • VADOUVAN CURRY POWDER Vadouvan Is a French Spin on Indian Curry Powder and One of the Must-Haves in My Pantry
    VADOUVAN CURRY POWDER Vadouvan is a French spin on Indian curry powder and one of the must-haves in my pantry. I use it in so many dishes. I love its warm heat, rounded flavours and intoxicating fragrance, thanks to lovely curry leaves. Makes: about 1/4 cup Time: 10 minutes INGREDIENTS METHOD 1 tsp fenugreek seeds 1. Place all Vadouvan spice mix ingredients into mixing 2 tsp cumin seeds bowl and toast 6 min/Varoma/speed 1, measuring cup 1 tbsp coriander seeds removed. 1 tsp ground turmeric 20 fresh curry leaves 2. Insert measuring cup. Mill 1 min/speed 9. Transfer into 1 tbsp brown mustard a sealed container and use as needed. seeds 2 tsp dried chilli flakes 1 tsp salt flakes Tips ½ tsp black peppercorns • You can use dried curry leaves in this dish but fresh have more flavour. I have a curry leaf plant in a pot outside my kitchen door: they’re pretty hardy. Otherwise, look for curry leaves in Asian grocers. You can freeze any you don’t use and pop them into your next batch of Vadouvan. • Triple the Vadouvan recipe so you’ve always got it on hand! • Va-voom with Vadouvan: you must try it in my Emergency Lentil Soup and Butter Chicken! It’s also great with roasted carrots or as a rub for lamb and chicken. Just mix a tablespoon with a good slug of olive oil to make a nice thick marinade or dressing. Scrambling some eggs or making an omelette? Add some vadouvan! Want more ideas? See here.

The Quest For Spices iv. Spices From Underground Parts v. Spices From Barks vi. Spices Obtained From Leaves vii. Spices Obtained From Flower Buds, Flowers , Fruits & Seeds 2 SPICES Spices have less nutritive value, and they can not be grouped as food. However, by adding good flavour and aroma to food, they greatly enhance the pleasure of eating. In general, all aromatic vegetable products that are used for flavouring foods and drinks are known as ‘spices’. They are characterized by pungency, strong odour, and sweet or bitter taste.Sometimes the terms spices and condiments are used together. Infact it is very difficult to draw a distinction between the two. Spices used, in a pulverized state primarily for seasoning or garnishing foods and beverages. Condiments, on the other hand, are other flavourings materials having a sharp taste and are usually added to food after cooking. However, when the aromatic vegetables products comes from a temperate plant, it is considered as a culinary herb as in the case of bay leaves, coriander, cumin, dill, fennel, fenugreek, mustard seeds, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, to mention a few. Besides imparting flavour to foods and drinks, they also stimulate ‘appetite’ increase the secretion and flow of gastric juices and help digestion because of their carminative properties. For this reason, they are commonly known as ‘food adjuncts’ or ‘food aecessories’. Most of them are used in different medicines.
