Many masalay in the market look good – but are they really pure? Learn how to test the quality of spices at home.
Not all masalay are created equal. Adulteration and artificial colours are common in low-grade spice brands. Here are some simple tips to check purity:
-
Haldi: Mix a pinch in water. If it settles without leaving bright yellow water, it’s pure.
-
Lal Mirch: Rub between fingers – if it feels sandy, it may contain brick powder.
-
Zeera: Burn a few grains. Pure zeera gives strong aroma, not a chemical smell.
Always buy from trusted sources who test for quality and don’t add artificial colours. Our spices are lab-tested and 100% natural – because your health matters
