| Description | “Ganth wali haldi hi better hoti hain, wahi leke aana”. We wonder if that makes sense but soon find out that the “ganth” or bulb variety of this golden-hued spice is richer in curcumin content. At Kashika, these rural nuggets are not only accepted but also respected as clearly generations of home-made masala making has left these women rich in technique and know-how. As the turmeric powder is prepared, it gains and loses color over its many stages but finally assumes a soothing rich chrome yellow. “Ek dum pure hain, dekh lo”, she demands. Who are we to counter that! | “Gaon ke garam masale mein dhaniya nahi padtha” she informs. At Kashika, the subtle cues are taken seriously. Sometimes she is hesitant to share her little rural secrets, but slowly she gains confidence and speaks her mind. The freshly ground Garam Masala has a rich brown color and a fragrance that makes us go hungry all of a sudden. We learn that before Garam Masala became an evergreen spice mix, it was mostly made ahead of the cold winters as a warming spice mix. “Pakane ke anth mein daalo, toh swad bhi ayega aur sugandh bhi”, she suggests as a cooking tip. | “Sahi khada masala chune, tabhi unko bhune!” she says giggling at her witty choice of words. What she means is choosing the right raw spices before roasting is key to making the perfect masala. At Kashika, the best raw ingredients are chosen and the finest ones are painstakingly selected for the grind. As the roasting proceeds, it’s truly an olfactory delight until of course its the turn of peppercorns! “Thoda khatta, thoda theekepan se hi chole ka swaad ubhar ayega” she explains. | The North Indian Combo pack offers the right set of spices and masala mixes for your delicious and homely recipes of pure bliss and comfort, straight from the rich heritage of Kashi.

| “Sabhut dhaniya hi pisenge, humein halke chikle se kya lena dena” she clarifies adding that the dark-colored ones are the better seeds to pick. The nutty aroma of coriander powder wafts around the unit as the women prepare the area for sieving. Multitasking, we notice, is second nature to these women. “Baatein kum, kaam zyaada!” they mutter and laugh when prodded about meeting timelines. “Aur haan, baarish mein dhaniya mat lena peesne ke liye” another spice tip we obediently take note of. |
