✨ Key Characteristics and Usage
| Feature | Description |
| Form | The spices are used in their original, unpowdered form (seeds, bark, pods, leaves, etc.). |
| Purpose | Primarily used at the beginning of cooking to temper (or Tadka/Baghaar) hot oil or ghee, or added whole to a pot of rice or stew. |
| Function | Infusion: They release their essential oils slowly into the fat or liquid, providing a deep, base layer of aroma and flavor to the entire dish. |
| Result | They offer a purer, more intense aromatic quality compared to powdered spices, which are generally added later for texture and color. |
| Consumption | Depending on the spice, they are often left in the dish but usually not consumed (like bay leaves or large cardamom pods), or sometimes they are eaten (like cumin seeds). |
