Eight whole spices are roasted one at a time, because cardamom and cinnamon are ready at very different moments, then cooled and ground together. There is no salt, no chilli and no filler, so you stay in charge of heat and seasoning.
The full recipe, by weight, is printed on the tin and shown on this page.

What cooks wrote back
Entry 01
The garam masala smells like my grandmother's kitchen. I use half of what I used to and the dal tastes fuller.
Entry 02
Ordered the pepper cracked on a Monday and the tin said it was ground on Tuesday. You can tell the moment you open it.
Entry 03
Proper saffron, deep red with no yellow bits. Ten threads coloured a whole pot of kheer.
