Our OILS & SEEDS
CURRY POWDER
Curry powder is a mixture of spices that take on a yellow hue. Contrary to popular belief, it is not a staple ingredient in Indian cooking. Curry powder was created by the British to evoke the essence of Indian food and is not used in authentic Indian cooking. The confusion may come from a popular Indian dish known as “curry,” but that term refers not to the spice blend but to the dish itself, which is made up of a sauce or gravy along with meat and vegetables. The spice blend most often used in an Indian curry is garam masala.
One of the main ingredients in curry powder is turmeric. Other spices that can be incorporated include everything from ginger, cinnamon, garlic, and cloves to mustard seed, black pepper, and fennel seed.

SESAME SEEDS (HULLED AND NATURAL)
Sesame seeds are exceptionally nutritious, having indispensable minerals, such as iron, manganese, calcium, and natural preservatives like sesamolin and sesamin. These supplements cooperate to give ideal nourishment to our body.
Instances of such advantages are repair of body tissues, amplification of skin glow, improvement of healthy and strong bones, a decrease of cholesterol levels, and decrease of circulatory strain, to specify but a few. Sesame seeds grow from a blooming plant, referred to logically as Sesamumindicum, that is regularly found in Asia and Africa.
Besides nutritional content, there are other differences between unhulled and hulled sesame seeds. Below are the differences based on their physical appearance and nutritional benefits.
MUSTARD SEEDS
There are over 40 different varieties of mustard plants, but three are the most popular for culinary use; black, brown, and white mustard seeds typically go into recipes and making mustard. All three varieties are found in the U.S. as well as other parts of the world.
Mustard is the second most-used spice in the United States, as its usage is only exceeded by the peppercorn. And it’s no wonder since mustard works well with all types of meats, pork, poultry, and seafood. You may be used to standard yellow prepared mustard, but there are other wonderful varieties of seeds and prepared mustards to experiment with.
FENUGREEK SEEDS
Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is an herb that has culinary and industrial uses, but also has been used in traditional and alternative medicine. Fenugreek seed extract is used in pill form as a supplement and the seeds are used to make a medicinal tea.
The health benefits ascribed to fenugreek include blood sugar lowering for diabetes and prediabetes, increasing milk supply during breastfeeding, relief of menstrual cramps, and raising testosterone levels.1 However, research has not proven any benefits, and there are risks of toxicity and birth defects in using large doses.
