Spice 101

History

Turkish Curry is an original blend that draws on the deep, aromatic spice traditions of the Eastern Mediterranean and South Asia. Inspired by the bold flavors of Turkish cuisine and the structure of a South Asian curry powder, this blend bridges warm spice and gentle heat with a smoky, earthy twist.

Summary

Turkish Curry is a rich, earthy blend with layered warmth and a whisper of smoke. Made with Vietnamese black peppercorn, Indian coriander seed, fenugreek leaf, turmeric, ginger, Urfa biber, cardamom seed, Vietnamese cinnamon, and black cardamom pod, this blend is complex but balanced.

Why We Love It

This blend is perfect for braised lamb or chicken, lentil stews, spiced tomato sauces, or roasted root vegetables. Urfa biber adds a hint of smoke and depth, while the cardamom and cinnamon keep things warm and welcoming.

The More You Know

Urfa biber, a Turkish chile flake, is sun-dried by day and wrapped at night to cure in its own oils, creating a uniquely soft, raisiny heat.
