A Good Panch Phoran Substitute? - SPICEography What’s A Good Panch Phoran Substitute? - SPICEography

You can coarsely grind panch phoron and use it as a marinade or rub for meats and chunky root vegetables for roasting. Because the spices in curry powder are not as pungent as panch phoran’s ingredients, you should consider using more of it. Still, it is a good idea to start with an equivalent amount and then add more to taste. In a pinch: The three strongest components (Fennel, cumin, and fenugreek) The scientific name of this spice is Trachyspermum roxburghianum. Though many people think that radhuni is a seed of a plant. But it is not true because those are actually dried fruits of a flowering plant from the family of apiaceae. As you know the smell of this spice is very strong. Some people say that it smells like parsley. But I never smell parsley. So I do not have any idea. Many people also claim that it tastes like celery. This plant is normally cultivated in South Asia, South East Asia and Indonesia. Those dried fruits are used as herbal medicine in some countries.

If radhuni is not easily available, you can replace it with cumin seeds as I did. Fenugreek Seeds (Methi Dana) Speaking of turmeric, you will want to use curry powder only on dishes where the bright yellow color is not a problem. Note also that curry powder is (as the name suggests) powder, so it will not be as useful for tempering as the whole spices in panch phoran since it is more likely to scorch. You will have to add it to the dish in powdered form, either before or after you finish cooking. This Indian 5-spice is readily available in your nearby grocery stores but you can very easily prepare it at home as well. Fennel seeds are small, greenish-brown, oblong-shaped seeds that come from the fennel plant. They have a strong, anise-like flavor and aroma, and are commonly used as a spice in cooking, particularly in Indian and Mediterranean dishes. They are also used as a breath freshener after meals. Fennel seeds are believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and digestive properties. They are also used in traditional medicine to relieve menstrual cramps, increase milk flow in breastfeeding women, and treat digestive issues. Brown Mustard Seeds (Sarson) To make panch phoron spice mix, the seeds are neither roasted nor ground. They are just mixed together in a specific proportion. This whole spice mix is added to hot oil while tempering a dish and they release all their flavor and aroma in the hot oil making the final dish very flavorful.

The mild and versatile taste makes it an easy to use spice blend which with a little bit of imagination can be used in many different ways to flavour food. Radhuni is from the family Apiaceae and its botanical name is Trachyspermum roxburgianum. It is a less famous spice as it is most commonly grown in east of India and has its presence in Bengali cuisine as a part of Bengali panch phoron. It is very close to ajwain, looks slightly round and the seeds are bigger in size than ajwain. It has a mixed flavour of ajwain with an aftertaste of fennel seeds.

Bengali people can easily identify this spice. But the rest of India will get confused with ajwain or celery seeds. Radhuni spice is not popular in the rest of India. But it is known as ‘Ajmod’ in Hindi. The word comes from the Sanskrit word ‘Ajamoda’ or ‘Ajamodika’. Panch Phoron (Panch Phoran, Indian Five Spice Mix) is essentially a mixture of five aromatic spices (seeds).
