Anj’s Garam Masala is a blend of spices that Anjana Shah created in her kitchen. Anj has been creating Anj’s Garam Masala for years and it has become the most popular spice in her family. Anj wanted to share this with everyone, so she started selling it online. Anj was kind enough to send me some samples of Anj’s Garam Masala, which I tried with my own dishes.
Here are 3 easy steps on how you can make your own Anaj’s Garam Masala at home!
The first step is to toast your Anj’s Garam Masala. You will need a dry and hot pan for this step. Toast the spices very carefully, as some of them might burn quickly! Use low heat and stir continuously to avoid burning.
Toast until you feel that they’re releasing their aroma into the air (about 30-60 seconds) – do not let it smoke or turn black!
Once done, immediately transfer Anj’s Garam Masala from the pan onto a plate so it can cool down faster. Then grind Anj’s garam masala in an electric grinder/blender with rock salt added in between two tablespoons of Anj’s garam masala powder for about 20-30 rotations.
This will break up clumps and result in Anj’s Garam Masala powder that is nice to sprinkle on top of your dishes!
Anj’s garam masala should be used within a month after grinding for optimal flavor. You can store Anj’s Garam Masala at room temperature, preferably in a cool dark place or refrigerator if you have one available. Anj recommends using Anj’s garam masala as a finishing spice – sprinkled over rice pilaf, lentil soup, Indian curries, curry sauces, whatever suits your fancy best.
This way, it releases its aroma into the dish just before serving so every bite gives you all the spices from heaven 🙂
You can also add Anj’s garam masala to your favorite savory baked good recipes such as bread, muffins, and scones.
