Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Toast the whole spices: In a dry skillet over medium heat, combine the coriander, cumin, mustard, anise, fenugreek, and allspice seeds. Toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant and slightly darkened in color (approximately 8-10 minutes).

02

Step
5 mins

Cool the spices: Remove the toasted spices from the skillet and allow them to cool completely to room temperature (about 15 minutes).

03

Step
5 mins

Grind the spice: In a spice grinder, combine the cooled toasted spices and ground turmeric. Pulse until a fine, even powder is achieved (around 2-3 minutes).

04

Step
0 mins

Store: Transfer the Jamaican curry powder to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.

For the most intense flavor, use whole spices and toast them lightly. This releases their essential oils and enhances their aroma.
Customize the heat level by adding cayenne pepper directly to the powder. Start with 1 teaspoon and adjust to your taste.
Consider adding other spices like ginger, garlic powder, or cloves to create your own unique blend.
