Are all your spices organic?

Our farm partners have been cultivating spices using practices that go "beyond organic" for well over five years. Although they haven't obtained USDA certification yet, this is primarily because the initial certification can be costly and may lead to cycles of debt. To meet USDA standards, four years of inspections and certificates are required after the first certification. However, we consider this process redundant and unnecessary since we conduct thorough testing on every batch we procure. It's a prerequisite for Diaspora Co. to select farm partners whose soil health and agricultural practices align with our internal standards of growing food regeneratively.

Do you sell wholesale?

We do! You can search for our wholesalers using our store locator here. And if you are a wholesaler and don’t see yourself on the locator, please email wholesale@diasporaco.live and we will add you to this ASAP! Thank you!

When do the spices expire? How long do they last?

Most of the spices are good 2 years from the mill date, which is listed on the harvest label sticker on the jar or bag. That being said, our spices are extremely potent and fresh as we take incredible care to source yearly and aim for quality, so 2 years is our most conservative guideline, compared to most spices in the grocery store which are often 5-10 years old upon purchase.

What is the best way to store the spices?

Store them in an airtight container in a dark, dry place. Do not store spices in direct sunlight, as this will shorten their shelf life.

What makes Diaspora Spice Co.'s Masala Collection special?

The Masala Collection brings together six freshly ground Indian spice blends made with vibrant, single-origin spices sourced from our partner farms. From garam masala to chaat masala and tandoori masala, each blend has a different job in the kitchen, making it easy to bring bold, layered flavor to everyday cooking.

Which dishes can I make with the Masala Collection?

Think of these Indian cooking spices as your shortcut to big flavor. Use the blends in curries, biryanis, grilled vegetables, roasted meats, chaats, snacks, and homemade chai. Each Indian spice blend is designed for a different style of cooking, giving you plenty of ways to experiment in the kitchen.

What spice blends are included in the Masala Collection?

The Masala Collection includes Garam Masala, Chaat Masala, Tandoori Masala, Biryani Masala, Chai Masala, and Padma Lakshmi's Gunpowder. Together, these Indian spice blends cover everything from marinades and curries to finishing spices, rice dishes, snacks, and beverages.

Can I use these spice blends beyond traditional Indian recipes?

Absolutely. Sprinkle chaat masala over fresh fruit or popcorn, use tandoori masala in marinades for vegetables or proteins, or finish soups and roasted vegetables with garam masala for added warmth. These Indian cooking spices are versatile enough for classic South Asian dishes as well as everyday cooking across cuisines.

Who is Diaspora Spice Co.'s Masala Collection designed for?

The Masala Collection is for home cooks, adventurous food lovers, and anyone who wants to explore fresh, flavorful Indian spice blends. It's also a thoughtful Indian spice gift set for anyone building or refreshing their spice pantry, with six versatile blends to cook with again and again.
