Spices are the heart and soul of Indian cuisine. India produces, consumes, and exports more spices than any other country in the world. These spices include cumin, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, garlic, turmeric, bay leaf, and many other robust and aromatic elements. It’s known as Masala Dabba in India. Masala is Spice, and Dabba is Box.
“Spice box” means exactly what it says: an organized mixture of essential spices in a convenient box for everyday use. Every household in India, and every Indian household in America has a Spice Box in the kitchen. It is simply the way spices are stored and used when cooking. In fact, there is a tradition in Indian weddings in which the mother of the bride gifts her daughter with her own masala dabba to use as she starts her own family. For this reason, masala dabba is more than just a box of spices; it symbolizes a mother’s love and blessings for the family.

This company catered for big events in Kentucky and surrounding areas. Her cuisine focused on traditional Indian food, as well as some variant cuisines depending on the event.
