As I grew up, my mother taught me the specific blend and combinations of the spices she used to make our Indian food and the only change she made to her garam masala was the use of a small electric coffee-grinder. All other ingredients were fresh and carefully added to make delicious North Indian Punjabi dishes. Today,Pure Punjabi products are made by hand with loving care in small batches. Open a jar and smell the freshness! As a young girl, I watched my mother grinding spices to make Garam Masala, in much the same way as her mother and generations before had done, in the time-honoured tradition of squatting down at the heavy black mortar and hand-grinding with the long wooden pestle.
