    Default Indian Spices

    My usual source for spices has gone out of business and I need the following spices for an indian curry dish I'm making. Anyone know of a good place where I can buy some or all of these spices in BULK from? I can probably buy them all at SuperStore but would have to buy a packaged bag of each which is overkill since I only need a little bit of each.


    garam masala
    coriander
    cardamom pods
    curry leaves
    cumin seeds
    coriander seeds
    fennel seeds
    fenugreek seeds
    mild curry powder

    You sure about that? What's the name? I checked the Willow Park Village store directory and I don't see a name that would fit that style of store:

    Noob question.

    I know curry is supposed to be a mix of spices (that I have no idea of what it would include). So the ones you've listed, are they the most common ones used to make a curry? Sorry if it's a dumb question, the only curry i know how to make are those that are already pre-made and sold in jars...

    If your making a basic curry, garam masala and curry powder and maybe some cumin powder would be enough for your tastes. All those other ones you CAN add for more complexity but for basic those 3 should be good to go.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Superstore.
    Mr. Madison, what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
