In this blog post, we’ll delve into the art of creating homemade spice oils and vinegars that will transform your Indian dishes into gourmet delights.

The Magic of Homemade Spice Oils

Ingredients:

  1. All About Spices’ Garam Masala
  2. Quality cooking oil (e.g., olive oil or sesame oil)

Instructions:

  1. Choose Your Spice Blend: Start by selecting your favorite spice blend. We recommend using All About Spices’ Garam Masala for its rich and aromatic flavors.
  2. Combine Spices and Oil: In a glass container, add a generous amount of Garam Masala to the oil. The quantity of spices depends on your desired level of flavor intensity.
  3. Infuse and Store: Seal the container and let it sit in a cool, dark place for at least a week. The longer you infuse, the deeper the flavors will become. Shake the container gently every day to evenly distribute the spices.
  4. Strain and Enjoy: After the infusion period, strain the oil to remove any solid particles. Your homemade spice oil is now ready to drizzle over Indian dishes like biryanis, curries, or grilled vegetables.

The Elegance of Spice-Infused Vinegars

Ingredients:

  1. All About Spices’ Chaat Masala
  2. White vinegar or apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

  1. Select Your Spice Blend: Opt for All About Spices’ Chaat Masala for its zesty and tangy profile.
  2. Blend Vinegar and Spices: In a glass bottle, mix Chaat Masala with your choice of vinegar. The ratio of spice to vinegar can be adjusted to suit your taste preferences.
  3. Infuse and Refrigerate: Seal the bottle and place it in the refrigerator for at least two weeks. This allows the flavors to meld and create a harmonious spice-infused vinegar.
  4. Strain and Serve: Once the infusion period is complete, strain the vinegar to remove any solid remnants. Use this tangy creation to add a burst of flavor to salads, marinades, and Indian appetizers.
