An exotic world full of bright colours, sensual smells and stimulating tastes – this image of India is certainly justified. India is undisputedly one of the most important countries of origin for many spices.
Curry is a symbol of Indian spice tradition and cuisine. As it is a spice mixture without a strict composition, curry is incredibly varied. How it tastes, smells, acts and looks depends on which spices are combined in which ratio. Characteristic components are fenugreek, turmeric, coriander, cumin and pepper. However, there are hardly any limits to creativity. Chilli, paprika, garlic, fennel and ginger, cloves, cinnamon and cardamom are also often added. Nutritionists believe that, when it comes to curries, the beneficial properties of the substances in the individual spices are even more effective when combined.
Plant-based ingredients predominate in Indian cuisine and vegetarian nutrition plays an important role. Dairy products and pulses, such as lentils and chickpeas, are the main protein providers. As a result, and through the use of many spices, Indian cuisine is considered digestible and healthy and is popular everywhere. With the wide selection of WIBERG curry variations, we can also prepare authentic Indian dishes. Because a lot of fans have more than the airy naan bread from the tandoor or crispy baked samosas with spicy vegetable filling. Refreshing and sweet, mango lassi – a milk drink with fruity mango puree – rounds off any Indian feast perfectly.
