Some spices, such as tejpatta and badi elaichi, can also be used whole in recipes where their flavour develops during cooking. Follow your recipe to decide which spices to grind and which to add directly to the pot.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do javitri, jaiphal and pippal add to garam masala?
They add distinct aromas and flavours, giving the garam masala blend more depth and complexity.
Do I need to roast the spices before grinding them?
Roasting is optional and depends on your recipe. Lightly roasting suitable whole spices in a dry pan can bring out their aroma, but use low heat and stir frequently to avoid burning them. Allow them to cool before grinding.
Can I adjust the spice proportions when making garam masala?
Yes. Homemade blends can be adjusted to suit your taste. Start with your preferred recipe and change the proportions gradually, keeping in mind that spices such as cloves, black pepper and nutmeg can have strong flavours.
Should all the spices be ground together?
Not necessarily. For a homemade garam masala powder, follow a recipe that specifies which spices to grind and in what proportions. Tejpatta may need to be dried and broken into pieces before grinding, while some recipes use whole spices directly during cooking.
How should I store the spices to preserve their aroma?
Keep the spices in clean, airtight containers in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, moisture and heat. If the combo contains separate packs, keep each one sealed after use. Grind spices in small batches when possible so the remaining whole spices retain their aroma for longer.
