Steenbergs Organic Madras Curry Mix is a Medium Hot Curry Powder . Curries - as we know them - are an invention of the British Raj. They are thought to have been invented in the 19th century for members of the East India Company. Axel Steenberg has created Steenbergs everday curry mix - organic Madras Curry Powder - to be a classic British style curry mix and to be really versatile. You can use a small amount to lift a vegetable soup or as a dry marinade on beef before barbecuing or mixed with mayonnaise for curried eggs.
The core elements are the sweet spices (almost like our mixed spice) of cinnamon. Pungent spices such as cloves, cardamom and cumin add a depth of character. Steenbergs organic Indian chilli and organic fenugreek, Keralan organic black pepper and Sri Lankan organic ginger give it some bite - our mild and hot curry powders simply have higher/lower amounts of chilli powder. These almost conflicting flavours are melded together by amalgamating spices - organic fennel seeds, organic coriander seeds and organic turmeric (which also gives it a characteristic yellow colour). At Steenbergs, we then add a little powdered organic garlic and organic onion to increase the versatility of the curry mix.
As with all Steenbergs artisan spice blends this seasoning has been created and blended at the Steenbergs spice factory in rural North Yorkshire, Great Britain, just north of the cathedral city of Ripon. Steenbergs specialises in organic and fairly traded spices..
