Panch Phoron ( ) is easily one of the most enticing spice blends in our arsenal both visually & aromatically. Also known as Bengali Five Spice, this blend of fenugreek seeds, black mustard seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds & nigella seeds is popular in eastern India & Bangladesh. It’s used in whole form, so the spices are not ground, but rather ’tempered’ in hot oil at the start of the cooking process. Once the seeds start to pop & begin releasing their incredible aromatics, you’re ready to roll with the rest of your ingredients. The pungent prettiness of Panch Phoron makes it a natural with vegetable heavy dishes & really amps up roast potatoes, lentils, cauliflower & all varieties of curries.
