Review: This has a permanent place in my kitchen - As a retired chef I, like most chefs, make my own mix or have preferences. I will always swear by Jalpur curry powder as it most closely resembles mixes I encountered in Goa and India. However, knowing of the claims of this mix I had to try it. This isn't a question of one being better than the other but the flavour of Chettinad is sublime, different from Jalpur but sublime. The mix of spices is very, very clever. It's like tasting wine and waiting to recognize which flavours are coming through but in this case smell the blend and recognize the subtle aromas of spices familiar to chefs. Most curry powders smell like well, curry powder. This blend doesn't just do that but rewards the patient with a whole array of exotic aromas. Review: Closest to a Durban masala I've found in the UK - Originally from Durban, South Africa which has a high population of Southern Indians. Finally found an authentic southern indian masala which reminds me of home. Chicken breyani, beef curry, chicken curry, chops chutney they all taste fantastic and take me back to Goundens, Govenders, or the Brittania Hotel...

Salt
An improvement could be that they have used sea salt, rather than table salt. Can not fault taste though. Very nice blend. Not to hot, not to mild heat.

Lovely Blend
My first time buy of BanyanTree spices - most impressed by this blend. Packs a veritable chilli punch so if you don't like your curries too hot add slowly to taste. NB: This is not the generic Madras powder so favored in British kitchens but rather a far tangier Southern Indian melange.

Marvellous
In the middle of making a lamb curry with this powder. The smell is wondrous and a preliminary taste promises a really authentic meal. Very happy with it.

Parfums et saveurs de l'Asie
Grande qualité de ce mélange d'épices, tant pour le parfum que pour la saveur. On ferme les yeux, on respire, et on est emporté. On sait pas où, mais c'est magique. Quant aux saveurs, même si l'on ne cuisine pas asiatique, la cuisine habituelle de-chez-nous en profite et prend un grand coup de saveurs et de goûts , grâce à ce mélange venu d'autre part qui transfigure notre héritage culinaire et culturel.

On gout que le chili rouge, pas les autres epices
Tres deçue par cette melange de curry--on gout que le chile rouge tres epicee, pas les autres epices que sont dedans. Je suis habitue aux curry tres releve, tres epice, mais la on est sur une autre planete. Impossible de calme le niveau du epice avec la yaourt, on gout que le capsaicin. Il a fini dans la poubelle.

Ein Curry für die Weihnachtsbäckerei ?!
Das Curry Indisch Chettinad Gewürz Pulver trifft leider überhaupt nicht meinen Geschmack. Die als mutige und authentisch südindischen Aromen entpuppen sich schon beim ersten Geruchstest und noch mehr nach dem ersten Kochen damit als für mein olfaktorisches Empfinden als das unaus- gewogenste Curry das ich kenne. Es riecht und schmeckt wie eine 50:50 Mischung von Raz el Hanout und chinesischem Five Spice Powder. Dabei ist der Kardamon- und Sternanisanteil dermaßen dominant und überpräsent, daß man außer der ebenfalls recht hohen Chilischärfe - mindestens vergleichbar mit grüner Thai-Chilipaste - praktisch keine anderen Aromen mehr wahrnimmt und das bei einer wesentlich geringeren Dosierung als auf der Packung empfohlen (Originaltext in Englisch "Add a spoon or more!" (=1 Löffel oder MEHR!). Auf die Angabe ob ein Teelöffel oder Esslöffel gemeint ist und v.a. auf welche Menge Fleisch, Gemüse, Reis oder ähnl. wird gleich ganz verzichtet. Auch in puncto Frische kann meine Charge nicht unbedingt überzeugen. Abgefüllt im Juli 2017 mit dem MHD Juli 2019 nur noch 1 Jahr optimale Haltbarkeit bei einer Menge von 200g ist nicht gerade TOP. Die Lieferzeit von 9 Kalendertagen war auch nicht unbedingt die schnellste. Aber Hauptkritikpunkt bei diesem Gewürz bleibt der unrunde geschmackliche Gesamteindruck. Wäre das Curry nicht so scharf würde es vielleicht noch für die Weihnachtsbäckerei meiner Frau (u.a. für Lebkuchen) brauchbar sein. Zum Kochen werde ich es wohl kaum benutzen wollen. Weil die Qualität der Gewürzmischung (wenn man auf diesen Geschmack steht) trotzdem gut erscheint gebe ich 2 Sterne.
