Vadouvan

Vadouvan is a French-inspired curry blend that brings together traditional Indian masala spices with French aromatics like shallots and garlic. Many of the spices are toasted before blending, giving this mix a distinctive roasted depth and savory complexity. Thought to be influenced by French colonial presence in India, Vadouvan is often described as a French curry powder and can be used anywhere you’d typically use curry.
