# EveryMasala

> Every spice in the world, from every kitchen. A free guide to 306 spices and 67 blends from every country, filed by region, country and spice city, by part of the plant (seed, bark, root, flower, fruit, pod-chilli, leaf, resin, bulb, stigma, blend, paste, salt-seasoning), by flavour (hot, warm, sweet, earthy, citrus, pungent, smoky, floral, bitter, anise, sour, umami, numbing, herbal), by meal, by spiritual use and by celebration, with blends drawn as ring charts and made step by step, a live calendar, a world map and a glossary. Published by ClearTrust.

Each spice page gives: name and native name, botanical name, countries, spice cities and growing areas, heat on a 0 to 5 scale, what it is, where it comes from, flavour, how it is grown and processed, how it is used, by meal and by cuisine, spiritual and celebratory use, traditional use (as tradition, never medical advice), buying and storing, substitutes, trade history, a short FAQ, further reading and source links. Pages are derived from Wikipedia and Wikidata with AI assistance and may contain mistakes; cite the page URL.
