WE LOVE IT!
I ordered two round tins of the VADAVAN because Thora mentioned it in a recipe. My husband Dave used it in one of his creations and I used it in one of my soup creations. Neither of us follow recipes very closely. I got a free sample of MASSAMAN CURRY with the order and we love that too!I'll be placing a larger order the first part of November. I want to read about all the spices first. Thank you! Chloe Patton

The Perfect Blend
I use this on everything. It's subtle enough so that you don't get knocked down by curry (not that I mind!). I often use it in a concoction of chicken stock and coconut milk - kind of a bone broth protein drink. I've used it on fish, chicken, in rice, on vegetables and in sauces. It's not hot (though I love heat), and has a perfect balance of flavors. I just love this stuff!

Essential for codfish
This spice is oh so good! I put a couple of heaping tablespoons of Vadavan into a puddle of olive oil and then dredge my fillet of codfish or haddock in it. Then I add salt & pepper, bake at 425 F for ~12 min, and voila! A friend loved it so much that she bought some Vadavan too and now she does this recipe with salmon.

Addictive
I love this stuff! I make a lot of spice blends at home myself so even ordering this was a weird thing for me to do... SO glad I did! While I still do my blends for big curry batches this has become a countertop spice that I put on eggs, veggies, fishes... etc. Its so quality (which I can only get if I buy whole spices then roast and grind myself), and it is not that flat blah-curry-blah taste most curry powders have. YUM.

Delicious Pork Rub
This is delicious on thick cut pork chops, grilled. Use olive oil rubbed first, then the spice. Quick grill to sear in flavor, then slow cook....Fabulous!
