The Bolst family of Bangalore have been involved in the selection and blending of fine Curry Powders for many generations. Over the years their dedication to quality has enabled them to establish an international reputation for Indian food ingredients. Curry powder is the solution to making curry the simplest possible way, without having to resort to a pestle and mortar. This mixture is a combination of coriander, cumin, black mustad seeds, dried red chillies, black pepper, turmeric, fenugreek seeds and curry leaves. Curry powder is used in soups, dals and of course, curries. Review: Authentic curry powder - I was brought up in the far and middle East. My father as a young man was in the Indian Cavalry, when my husband and I were leaving for America I was upset because I could not find the spices, paste or curry powder in those days to make a decent curry. I called my father who was retired at that time and he reported to me that they army did not march with a cookie mashing spices to a paste. He told me to go to the nearest army barracks or Headquarters and ask the Quarter Master if I could obtain some curry powder. This I did and the Officer in charge gave me a case of Bolst"s curry powder, each can weighing 2 lbs, 24 cans in all. He told me to follow the directions carefully and I would have Northern Indian Punjabi curry which is dark brown not yellow like Madras. This case lasted me 20 years and I was delighted find out that I could get this curry from desertcart, I use both mild and hot depending on the dish I am making. I hope I am never without it, it is the best. RMA Review: BOLSTS IS THE REAL DEAL - I cook a large amount of Indian/Pakistani dishes. I have used curry powder from all over the world and in the end, Bolsts always comes out on top as far as flavor goes. Yes it is a bit costly compared to other curry powder but it is most definitely worth it!!

Priced too high
This is an excellent spice but the Amazon prices are too high. I started getting them from the local ethnic stores for much less

Great!
This stuff is wonderful. A great curry powder, and difficult to find in the US. The mild seems to be great for Anglo-Indian foods.

Buyer beware
Just ordered and received this product but it is best used by Feb 2014, less than 5 months away. That is just ridiculous!

Delicious curry, bad vendor
Three stars (should be 2.5) averages my rating. 5 stars for the curry itself: I've used it for literally years and LOVE it. It's classic British curry, the perfect blend of savory spices, warm and rich, with no heat--you can add that yourself to taste. BUT 1 STAR for the vendor. Can of curry arrived two days ago: dented and with an expiration date of November 2016 (four months ago). This is a shame. The can is vacuum sealed (opened with a ring pull-top), fortunately, and still retains good aroma, but the vendor ("Dual Speciality, NYC") should be avoided.
