What is Panch Phoron?
Panch Phoron is a Bengali, North Indian five-spice blend with a distinctly Indian aroma and mild heat. Before use, simply roast the spice mix in a bit of ghee, allowing the individual spices to release their captivating aroma, taking you on a culinary journey to North India.
This spice blend is also known as:
- panch phoran,
- pach phoron,
- pas phoron,
- panch phutana,
which all mean "five spices". In various parts of the world, it is also called Bengali Five Spice. However, it is in no way comparable to the Chinese Five Spice mix.
This traditional spice mix from Northern India consists of five spices: brown mustard seeds, nigella, fennel, cumin, and fenugreek. It is one of the most widely used spice blends in Northern Indian cuisine, especially in Bengali, Oriya, and Assamese kitchens. It is also marketed under the name Indian Five Spice Blend. For North Indian cuisine, it serves as a universal seasoning, much like Shichimi Togarashi does for Japanese cuisine.
Culinary Uses of Panch Phoron
Panch Phoron is traditionally used not only in bread doughs and beans but also in lentil soups. It also flavors curry dishes with fish, vegetables, or beef. Additionally, it is used in pickles and shukto. Typically, Panch Phoron is roasted in ghee or, if unavailable, in oil before adding other ingredients to the pot. The oil infused with this aromatic blend can also be used to season steak or roasted chicken.

Storage Instructions
Please transfer all purchased spices and blends into airtight containers. Personally, I prefer spice jars as they are the easiest to clean. Tins look nice but often begin to rust due to kitchen humidity and do not seal airtight. Spices should be stored away from light, in a dry and cool place (15°C).
Ingredients: Mustard Seeds, Nigella, Fennel, Cumin, and Fenugreek.
Allergens: Contains mustard and may contain traces of celery.
