Biryani Masala

Biryani is an aromatic spiced rice preparation popular in South Asia that features layers of vegetables or meats layered with basmati rice, cooked using the ‘dum’ method. The rice is cooked ‘low and slow’ in a sealed pot that results in perfectly cooked rice and tender meats and vegetables.

Zaica’s Biryani Masala includes - get ready for it - dried onions, lemon garlic salt, black cardamom, cumin, Kashmiri chilies, dried ginger, black pepper, star anise, whole mace, green cardamom, fennel seed, Alba cinnamon, coriander seed, cloves, and curry leaves. What more could you ask for? We leave this masala (spice blend) whole to offer more freshness and subtlety that will become your goto spice blend for making rice.
