Garam Masala is a foundational North Indian spice blend designed to add warmth and depth at the end of cooking. Unlike generic blends that rely on heat alone, this is aroma-forward, with layered notes of sweet, earthy, and floral spices.
It is a finishing spice, added after tomatoes reduce but before final simmer.
Key characteristics: • Coarse, speckled texture — visible cinnamon flakes, clove buds, and cardamom pods • Aroma: Warm and comforting — cinnamon and cloves first, then green cardamom, hint of bay leaf • Taste: Layered — sweet (cinnamon), earthy (cumin), floral (cardamom), gentle warmth (black pepper) • Finish: Clean, lingering warmth — no bitterness or chemical aftertaste
Best used in: • Dal Tadka • Curry Gravies (chicken, paneer, vegetable) • Marinades (for tikka, kebabs) • Rice Dishes (pulao, biryani) • Comfort Foods (khichdi, halwa, hot chocolate)
Pro Tip: Always add Garam Masala at the END of cooking — after tomatoes reduce but before final simmer. Too early, and delicate oils burn; too late, and flavor won’t infuse.
Most market garam masalas suffer from:
• Use of low-grade spices or filler seeds
• Addition of maida or starch to thicken gravy artificially
• Artificial colors or flavor enhancers to mask poor quality
• Inconsistent spice ratios — leading to bitter or flat results
EarthSpice Garam Masala delivers:
• Real whole spices only — Cumin, Black Pepper, Cassia, Dried Ginger, Cardamom, Amomum, Cloves, Nutmeg, Mace, Green Cardamom, Coriander — no husk, no dust, no fillers
• No maida, no anti-caking agents — natural flow from controlled moisture (<8%)
• Balanced heat (3/10) — warmth from black pepper and nutmeg, not red chilli
• No artificial colors — natural brown hue from roasted spices, not dyes
• Batch-traceable — blend date and source code printed on every pack
This recipe was refined with chefs from Old Delhi’s Karol Bagh and Mumbai’s Bandra over 39 years — using only the ingredients listed on the label, blended for warmth without bitterness.

Dal Tadka: Tempered in ghee with cumin and asafoetida for restaurant-style depth
Curries and Sabzi: Added in the final simmer to lift tomato-onion gravies
Marinades: Mixed with yogurt for paneer or chicken (rest 30 minutes minimum)
Rice Dishes: Sprinkled into pulao or biryani layers before dum
Comfort Foods: Stirred into khichdi, halwa, or even hot milk for winter wellness
Dish Examples:
Butter Chicken (final aroma lift)
Dal Makhani (tadka finish)
Vegetable Pulao
Winter Khichdi with Ghee
Gajar Halwa (pinch for warmth)
Key Insight: Garam Masala is a finisher, not a base. Add it late in the cooking process to preserve volatile oils and avoid bitterness.

We guarantee:
100% whole spices – no fillers, no seed husks, no rice flour
No artificial colors – natural brown hue from roasted spices
No preservatives – low moisture (under 8.5%) prevents spoilage naturally
FSSAI-compliant ash content (under 12%) and microbial safety
Every batch is checked for:
Moisture content – maximum 8.5%
Foreign matter – zero tolerance
Aroma intensity – must pass sensory panel test
Grind consistency – coarse enough for texture, fine enough for even dispersion
Certifications printed on pack: FSSAI License Number, AGMARK
Store in an airtight container, preferably glass or metal
Keep in a cool, dry place away from stove, steam, or sunlight
Use a dry spoon only – moisture causes clumping
Best used within 3 months of opening for peak aroma
Shelf life: 12 months from roast date (clearly printed on pack)
Note: Clumping does not indicate spoilage. Break apart with a spoon – flavor remains intact. The absence of anti-caking agents means no silica or maida in your food.
100g is the optimal size for a finishing spice:
Sufficient for regular home use (4–6 weeks for families cooking 4–5 times weekly)
Prevents waste – aroma fades gradually after 4–5 months even unopened
Economical for a premium, small-batch product
Generic blends often use low-grade spices, oven-dry for speed, and add maida to prevent clumping. This creates a flat, sometimes bitter taste. EarthSpice Garam Masala uses whole spices, live-charcoal roasting, and no fillers. The result is layered warmth – not just heat – with no aftertaste.
No. Heat level is mild (3 out of 10), coming only from black pepper – not red chilli. For sensitive palates, use ¼ teaspoon per dish. For gravies serving 4, ½ to 1 teaspoon is standard.
Dark red or black hues in market blends come from artificial colors like caramel or red oxide. Ours is a natural roasted brown – the true color of cinnamon, clove, and cardamom. We prioritize safety and authenticity over visual appeal.
Yes, in moderation. A pinch (⅛ teaspoon) enhances gajar halwa, kheer, or even hot chocolate. Avoid in delicate sweets like rasgulla or sandesh where spice may overpower.
Check three things: strong cinnamon-clove aroma on opening, free-flowing texture, and roast date within 60 days. If any doubt, send a photo via WhatsApp. We will replace the pack the same week – no questions asked. Over 1,500 replacements fulfilled, zero disputes.
