How Curry Powder Is Made

Curry powder is a blend of spices used to add warm, aromatic flavor to dishes.

Curry powder typically includes:

• Turmeric (gives the signature yellow color)
• Coriander (adds a mild citrusy flavor)
• Cumin (earthy and slightly nutty)
• Fenugreek (adds a slightly bitter, maple-like taste)
• Ginger (adds warmth and slight sweetness)
• Mustard Seeds (adds a mild heat and depth)
• Black Pepper (provides a slight kick)
• Cinnamon (adds warmth and a touch of sweetness)
• Cardamom (aromatic with citrusy and floral notes)
• Cloves (adds a deep, warm spice)
• Dried Chili Peppers (adds heat, depending on preference)

The spices are toasted to enhance their flavors, then ground into a fine powder.

The exact combination and proportions vary depending on the region and recipe.
