Dried Curry Leaves | Aromatic and Distinctive Flavor | With All the Flavor of Fresh Leaves | Kari Patta 0.5 oz.

This year I decided to set a goal of learning to cook more Indian cuisine. Many of the recipes from the cookbook I bought call for fresh curry leaves. Not being able to find those locally easily, I decided to try these dried curry leaves. These dried herbs have added great flavor to all the meals I've made with them. I do sometimes alter when I add the dried leaves according to the recipe. For example, if the recipe calls for curry leaves to be used as a fresh herb just at the end of cooking, I'll add them a bit earlier so they can hydrate and release their flavor into the dish.I'm sure the taste of the dried leaves is different from fresh ones, as is true with all dried vs fresh herbs, but since I've not been able to cook with fresh curry leaves I can't comment on that aspect.This a fairly large bag and enough for quite a few dishes. I will purchase this brand again when I run out.

I liked everything about this brand and in the quality of their dried herbs, whole leaf or powdered... very fresh & fragrant; made my curries tastier & flavorful.. First, heat up pan to medium heat for about a minute, then pour oil & once hot (but not too high), saute garlic, onions with a few leaves or a half teaspoon (for powdered version)... then add curry powder, pinch of salt & stir, then add a bit of water & the rest of whatever you want to saute or stirfry... these herbs will kick up your stirfried foods or curry stews a notch!

I read about the differences between the fresh leaf curry and the ground curry herb, and oh what a difference! The scent is like nothing I have experienced from the freshly dried herbal world. I purchased this for the health benefits, but have already used it in cooking rice and again in stew. It is so different from the herbs I normally use for flavoring, such as savory, basil and parsley. Fresh curry leaves have a distinctly fragrant and slightly pungent scent, and they add a delicate dimension to the foods we have tried it in. I also made a cup of hot tea, as I have read about how it may benefit people with type 2 diabetes. I will buy this product again! I love it.

It smells divine. All leaves are dried and not crushed, which is awesome as you can cut it into little strips if you need to or add the whole leaf.

I unfortunately cannot find curry leaves in my city and it has been YEARS since I had any. I missed the extra depth and taste curry leaves give to certain dishes. I bought these because of the reviews and this product DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I use curry leaves in my chutneys, daals, khatta, and other dishes and these leaves just pack SO much flavor. I will buy these from this seller from now on. I am SO happy I found these!

These are perfect curry leaves for Indian dishes. I don’t always have fresh ones around or want to run to the grocery, and these dried ones work perfectly. The flavor and smell is fresh. I use Burma Spice for other products as well, and I’ve been pleased with everything.

I was really skeptical of buying the dried leaves but there being no supply of them locally I bought these as well as a live plant.The plant arrived about 5" high so rather than use the fresh leaves I used the dried in a a curry with coconut milk and OMG the closest thing to real Kerala curry ever!. I used tofu instead of the fish used at our favorite Indian restaurant (been feeling better reducing animal protein to 1-2X per week from 2-4 times) and it was spectacular.

It was ok

Good buy
