What Is a Masala Spice Blend?

A masala is a blend of whole and ground spices used as the flavor base for a specific Indian dish. Each dish has its own unique spice combination — tandoori relies on cumin and coriander for its smoky marinade, Gobi Masala is bright and earthy for cauliflower, and Aloo Rasedar is aromatic and warming for potato curry. moji masala® pre-measures each blend for one complete dish so home cooks don't need to source or measure individual spices.
