Leela's kitchen, a multi award winning and a proud business partner of UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man are specialist in providing authentic Indian cooking classes, dinner parties on the Isle of Man. We take great pride in providing authentic family spice blends handed down by many generations. What makes our products different? Unlike many on the market, all of the spices blended by Leela's Kitchen are proudly GM free, meaning that they thrive in their natural environment without being exposed to any sort of growth enhancing fertilizers throughout the course of the production process. Leela's Kitchen spices have a shelf life of two years and are packaged in conveniently sized tubs made of 100% recyclable BPA free polypropylene (PP5), the highest grade in plastic. In line with recently becoming a business partner of UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man, we have also just started offering to refill customer's (Isle of Man only) tubs at a discounted price. One of Kumar's top tips? You can make them last even longer by storing them in a cool, dark place away from direct heat, moisture and sunlight. When a spice is ground, it imparts an aroma that is beautifully strong but unfortunately short-lived. Without needing to use additives, preservatives or ionised radiation, this heat-treating method prolongs the shelf life of the spice while also enhancing its flavor, for example our chilli powder is rather fierce!This process of dry frying releases the spice's natural oils, meaning that just one teaspoon of Leela's Kitchen turmeric, for instance, is equivalent to about one tablespoon of standard supermarket branded turmeric in strength and flavour. Perhaps what is even more interesting is the fact that they are also non-irradiated. We discovered that in order to increase shelf life and kill bacteria, most spices on the market undergo a process called ionised radiation which unfortunately has the adverse 'side effect' of producing a degenerated food product devoid of its usual medicinal properties. Research also suggests that the treated product may even contain carcinogenic chemicals. Instead, our spices are subjected to a more natural process of dry frying to achieve the same results without impacting the health benefits of his spices.What is most invaluable in our opinion, however, is the fact that Leela's Kitchen offers its customers the highest level of traceability. For a product that hails from halfway around the world, it means that we can trace our award-winning peppercorns, for instance, back to a single estate in the Malabar region that uses traditional and ethical methods of farming in keeping with export standards. Leela's kitchen ensures that each and every spice is sourced directly from the farmer as a result of my father's connections in India, thanks to two generations of trading in spices as Balakrishna Menon & Sons. From my family to yours - Namaste.
