Curry powder

Curry powder is any of several spice mixes for curry, adapted from garam masala in Indian cuisine. It was first sold by Indian merchants to British traders during the British Raj. The first commercial curry powder product was sold by Sorlie's Perfumery in London in 1784.

Brands such as Crosse & Blackwell and Sharwood's were established in the 18th and 19th centuries.
