Why This Recipe Works

Mild, aromatic, and sweet, this curry powder has a unique flavor due to the combination of savory and sweet spices. Starting with whole coriander, cumin, and mustard seeds was the key to building a potent base. Turmeric added earthiness and a brilliant yellow color while ginger and cinnamon gave the mix a sweet finish.
