Bring the authentic taste of East India to your kitchen. Panch Puren, also known as Panch Phoron, is an iconic blend of five whole seeds that plays a central role in Bengali, Assamese, and Oriyan cuisine.

Culinary profile

Unlike ground masalas, these whole seeds retain their essential oils until the moment of preparation. The blend offers a harmonious balance between the tartness of fenugreek, the earthiness of cumin, and the delicate sweetness of fennel seeds. Black cumin and mustard seeds lend the mixture a pleasant depth and texture.

Uses & Recipes

Panch Puren is traditionally used for tempering (with tadka). Heat a small amount of oil or ghee and add the spice mix until the seeds begin to pop. This aromatic base is ideal for:

• Lentil dishes (Dal): Gives simple lentils a complex flavor.
• Vegetables (Sabji): Especially tasty with potatoes, pumpkin or cauliflower.
• Fish curries: A must for authentic makers Jhol recipes.
