Blended Whole Spices
Blended whole spices refer to a mixture of various whole spices that are combined to create a balanced and flavorful seasoning blend. These blends often include a combination of seeds, berries, roots, and bark, which are left whole rather than ground into a powder. Blended whole spices are commonly used in cooking to add depth of flavor and complexity to dishes, and they are often toasted or fried before being incorporated into recipes to enhance their aroma and taste. Examples of blended whole spices include garam masala, curry powder, and Chinese five-spice blend.
