Description

Masala powder is a fundamental term in Indian cooking meaning a blend of ground spices, creating complex flavors for dishes like curries, stews, and marinades, with Garam Masala (warm spices: cumin, coriander, cardamom, cinnamon) being a famous example, but many specific masalas exist (e.g., Chai Masala, Tandoori, Chana) for different recipes, adding aroma, warmth, and depth to South Asian cuisine.
