“Nicely packaged and great taste. Note, 3 week shelf life or longer if placed in the freezer. After one week I noticed some moisture in the Madras kit as the chillis and ginger had started to break down despite being stored in a cool place. As such I put the remainder of the kits in the freezer. All being well I will enjoy the flavours fit weeks to come?”

Hi Paul, thanks for the review. We are pleased to hear that you are enjoying cooking with us and are finding our recipes easy to follow. We advise to use your kits straight from frozen once you decide to use them, if the garlic and ginger is a little tough we suggest grating them. Hope this helps.

“Easy to use, excellent quality, always tastes great. More sustainable packaging or at least clear labelling of whether plastic is recyclable. But love the spices.”

“Makhani and chicken tikka masala so far both very tasty. Onion Bhaji simple to make and tasty too. Tex mex chilli was ok but personally I thought it wasn’t as good as the curries.”

“The taste is great and good clear instructions. Only criticism is that we we bought a pack of six and the fresh ginger has spoilt in 3 of the packs and is unusable. We have had a ginger from our our local shop to replace same. We will reorder.”

Hi Bill, thanks for the review. We are pleased to hear that you are enjoying cooking with us and are finding our recipes easy to follow. For future reference our packs can be frozen, if you decide to do this we recommend using the kits straight from the freezer if the ginger and garlic becomes abit tough we suggest grating it.

“Ordered for a friend for her birthday and also for myself. Love the fact they can be frozen. Delivery was on time despite a christmas back log, so good service. Instructions clear and curry smelt amazing. Have only tried Sri Lankan Curry so far, and looking forward to trying the others. Great idea to save lots of part used spices and exotic ingredients hiding in the cupboard for years! Will definitely order again”
