Gloria,
Penzey's makes the BEST curry blends in the world Especially for
folks who haven't cooked a lot of Indian food. I started with small
jars of Sweet Curry Blend, ground coriander, ground cardamom, and
Maharajah Blend. The Maharajah is the most expensive but buy a little
one because that's the one you go to when you just want a hint of
mystery. Theron is right about the Indian markets. If you get the
right one (fast turnover/fresh stuff) you can save a mint on SOME
spices. Penzey's French Basil is utterly wonderful. Get some next
time!
