<Puzzled> But that was on BBC2 on Monday - where did you see it
tonight?

It was interesting though, as have been most of the programs in the
series so far. Most interesting to me is tha fact that she rarely
seems to bother making complex masalas in advance, seeming to prefer
to use just a few whole or powdered spices as appropriate.

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose 
customers look like they might be of Indian descent. The variety 
of different types is amazing. There's quite a good store that I 
often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

<Puzzled> But that was on BBC2 on Monday - where did you see it
tonight?

It was interesting though, as have been most of the programs in the
series so far. Most interesting to me is tha fact that she rarely
seems to bother making complex masalas in advance, seeming to prefer
to use just a few whole or powdered spices as appropriate.

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

<Puzzled> But that was on BBC2 on Monday - where did you see it
tonight?

It was interesting though, as have been most of the programs in the
series so far. Most interesting to me is tha fact that she rarely
seems to bother making complex masalas in advance, seeming to prefer
to use just a few whole or powdered spices as appropriate.

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose 
customers look like they might be of Indian descent. The variety 
of different types is amazing. There's quite a good store that I 
often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose 
customers look like they might be of Indian descent. The variety 
of different types is amazing. There's quite a good store that I 
often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose 
customers look like they might be of Indian descent. The variety 
of different types is amazing. There's quite a good store that I 
often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose 
customers look like they might be of Indian descent. The variety

often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

 Pre-packaged spice mixtures do seem to be very popular in 
Indian grocery stores around here, often in stores most of whose

often go to that is the only place I have seen *kilogram* cans 
of curry powder! Weep you purists!

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

<Puzzled> But that was on BBC2 on Monday - where did you see it
tonight?

It was interesting though, as have been most of the programs in the
series so far. Most interesting to me is tha fact that she rarely
seems to bother making complex masalas in advance, seeming to prefer
to use just a few whole or powdered spices as appropriate.

I would say that the more traditional methods of spicing would be
'added as appropriate', and not in one load, although there is an
alarming trend in India to use premade masalas appropriate to just one
dish. This method may save time, but as spices should be added at
different times (for different reasons) the end result is unlikely to
be as impressive.

Well the EC and the Indian government between them have killed that one 
stone dead.

I looked into importing my own high quality spices in bulk (100Kg lots) from 
India with a view to selling them.

Because of EC and Indian regulations it's almost impossible to import in 
anything more than trivial quantities,  and the major operators aren't 
interested in anything but huge quantities.

They claim there's no market in the UK for high quality spices in the 
quantities they want to ship.  Of course they want to ship everything in 20 
tonne lots in sealed containers...

The EC insist that everything imported from India is sterilised in such a 
way as to kill most of the flavour,  and certificated so highly and by such 
costly laboratories that it isn't actually worth importing less than several 
thousand pounds worth of any single spice...

The only exception is Kashmiri saffron, where people can put a twenty 
grands' worth in a suitcase,  fly to the UK,  walk through customs (no VAT, 
bugger all duty)  sell it for double that at this end, and still leave a 
decent mark-up for the retailer.

But,  of course,  Kashmir is off limits to Europeans so you've got to buy it 
from an agent, and the chances of getting ripped off are reasonably high.

The only way people are going to get to eat Indian food as good as the food 
served in India is to get to know someone who can send them the real spices 
used there,  because the system prevents you from buying decent spices here.
