I make - Japanese Curry Powder

This homemade Japanese curry powder mix came from SpiceRally. The flavor is gentle but unmissable exotic fragrance from the subcontinent. I have most of the ingredients at home (how amazing) but used Chinese 5-spice and garlic/herb seasoning to replace star anise down to ground thyme. Also, I didn't dry roast the whole lot. Instead, I cook the spice during curry preparation during the onion caramelization stage.
