Parsi Dhansak Masala

Traditionally used for an ancient Parsi dish, Dhansak (lamb & lentil stew) this unique spice blend is a family secret and not something you'll find at your local Indian shop.

Dhansak Masala is a spice blend unique to the Parsi Zoroastrian community that settled in India after their ancestors were persecuted in Iran about 1300 years ago. It's an all-in-one spice blend that contains half an Indian shop's worth of spices! What's unique about it is that it combines spices used in both Persian and Indian cooking. 

Like Garam Masala, every house will have its own closely guarded Dhansak Masala blend. This is the one I inherited from my grandmother Dolly. The main notes in our blend are of earthy cumin, zingy coriander and woody cinnamon with a hint of chilli. 

Our Dhansak Masala blend is made fresh to order which gives it a superior aroma. It's made with 100% natural spices and contains no added preservatives.
