It is often said, a good blend of Garam Masala is secret to Punjabi cooking.

At Poshtik we add over 12 choicest ingredients such as jeera, dhania, kali mirch, saunf, dalchini, laung, tejpatta and few other to create a perfect blend. To bring out the complete aroma, some of these ingredients are mildly roasted before they are crushed in a stone chakki, the traditional way.

Try the freshly ground Poshtik Garam Masala for a highly aromatic, tasty culinary treat. Order now at poshtik.in

Do spices go bad?

It varies. Spices, like all foods, have a distinct shelf life and will go bad. The length of that shelf life depends on how the spices are cared for. Heat, humidity, air, and sunlight all have detrimental effects: they break down the chemical compounds (also known as essential oils) that give spices their flavors and aromas. Ground spices compared to whole have shorter shelf life.

Stored correctly, some spices will maintain peak freshness up to a year, but others lose flavor more quickly.

What is the best way to store spices?

Spices should be kept in airtight containers in dark, cool places. Glass jars with tight fitting lids are perfect if you plan to store your spices in a cupboard. If kept in the open, use tins to ensure that sunlight cannot reach the spices

The Poshtik™ Edge

What is the difference between packaged spices and Poshtik spices?

When you buy from Poshtik™, you are getting great flavor because we grind our spices every few days. Spices begin to release their flavors as soon as you grind them, so freshly ground spices have more flavor. Further, Poshtik’s slow stone grinding (similar to using mortar and pestle) ensures essential oils are not lost in processing and we can control the level of coarseness.

Just be sure to store them in airtight containers to keep those flavors fresh.

From where are your spices sourced?

We source spices from all over India and some from Sri Lanka. While most are bought from domestic brokers, some like peppercorns (Kali Mirch) are sourced directly from the producers.
