New Product Vahdam India Curry Powder

The scoop

If you’ve been buying those tiny jars of curry powder at regular grocery stores, prepare to feel a little silly. Costco’s got the Vahdam India Curry Powder in a size that’ll actually last you more than two or three recipes.

This is authentic Indian curry powder from Vahdam, a brand that’s built its reputation on sourcing spices directly from farms in India. You’re getting a blend of turmeric, coriander, cumin, fenugreek, and other traditional spices that bring that warm, complex flavor we all love in curry dishes.

The quality here is noticeably better than generic grocery store brands—the aroma hits you the moment you open it. That said, if you’re new to cooking with curry powder, this blend leans toward the traditional Indian style, which might be slightly different from what you’re used to if you’ve only tried British-style curry powders. It’s also worth noting that curry powder can lose its potency over time, so unless you’re cooking curry weekly, you might want to share with a friend or family member.

Bottom Line: This is a solid pick if you cook Indian food regularly or want to experiment more with curry flavors without spending a fortune on small jars. Just make sure you’ll use it within a reasonable timeframe to get the most bang for your buck.
