Also known as Panch Phoron ("Five Spices"), use this flavorful blend for meats, fish, Indian stews, with rice or lentils, potatoes, bread, as a pickling spice, or heated in ghee before adding other vegetables.
Panch Phoron is a robust and flavorful blend that is delicious as a rub for meats and fish, added to Indian stews, combined with rice and/or lentils, sprinkled on roasted potatoes, added to bread before baking, used as a pickling spice, or heated in oil before adding other vegetables.
The name Panch Phoron literally means "five spices" in Bengali. The blend is most often used whole (versus ground), and it is made from equal parts cumin seed, black cumin seed (nigella sativa), fenugreek seed, fennel seed, and mustard seed.

I enjoyed reading about each item prior to purchasing. The aroma of each spice is prevalent and inviting. My family appreciated the introduction to new flavors. My order arrived in two days. That was really surprising and very well received.

Excellent product, speedy delivery
A recipe I wanted to make called for an Indian blend of spices I couldn't find anywhere, so I looked online and am so glad I found Pure Indian Foods! I got my spice blend right away and it's very high quality.

A great blend
I'm not using this spice in a tea bag while boiling sweet potatoes for mash. It is an excellent blend for veggies! I've also used it as a tea for digestion. Overall, fantastic quality and I look forward to experimenting more with it.

Excellent Quality/High Integrity
These spices are really fresh and I understand from speaking to the owner of the company that they have a personal relationship and knowledge of the growers in India. That is not common in the $50 billion organic industry today.
