Freshly ground spice carries its own oil and absorbs humidity. Break it up with a dry spoon - it is a sign of what is absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow long does Spicy Chili (Karnataka) stay potent?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree to four months in an airtight, opaque container kept cool and dark.

Bring it to the counter and we will mill it for you on the same machine, to whatever grind you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes Spicy Chili (Karnataka) expire, and how would I know?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt does not become unsafe so much as it goes flat. Rub a pinch between your fingers and smell it: fresh powder releases aroma at once. If you have to work at it, the volatile oils have gone and it is time to replace it, however good the colour still looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eShould I keep Spicy Chili (Karnataka) in glass or plastic?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eEither, as long as it is airtight and opaque. Light does more damage than the container material. A steel dabba or a tinted jar in a cupboard beats a clear glass jar on the shelf above the hob every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I keep Spicy Chili (Karnataka) in the fridge?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetter not. Taking a cold jar in and out of a warm kitchen condenses moisture inside it, and damp powder cakes and can grow mould. A cool, dark cupboard is the right place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat makes Spicy Chili (Karnataka) different from a supermarket packet?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming, mostly. A packet was ground in a factory months earlier and has been sitting since. Ours is milled to order from whole spice you can look at first, so the aromatic oils are still in the powder, and nothing is added at any point - no colour, no starch, no anti-caking agent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs Spicy Chili (Karnataka) freshly ground, or ground in advance and stored?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMilled to order. Whole spice is kept in store and ground when you buy it or when your order is packed.
