Dhaniya (Coriander) Powder – Stone Ground, Single Origin Madhya Pradesh

Where it comes from

• Madhya Pradesh — the plump, pale-green seed with the best aroma in India

Why grinding matters most for this spice

• Coriander’s character sits in volatile oils that leave with heat
• Most commercial dhaniya powder is grinded using high-speed pulveriser that gives you the right colour and almost no smell
• We stone-grind at low RPM in small batches

What’s not in it

• No dried husk or ground stalk
• No sawdust
• Coriander is a bulk commodity sold by weight, so the incentive to make it heavier is relentless. Ours is seed only.

How to use it

• The body of most masalas, as always
• Taste your gravy earlier than usual — you’ll need less
