Who we source from

Diaspora Co. Spices was started with a bold vision: to transform the spice trade by investing in the best regenerative farms across South Asia, paying farmers 3 to 5 times the typical commodity price they’d receive. They’re all about bringing wildly flavorful, incredibly fresh spices into kitchens everywhere. As a queer, woman of color-owned and led business, Diaspora Co. isn’t just about amazing heirloom spices — it’s about building something by and for their community. They’re redefining what "Made in South Asia" stands for and sharing stories of freedom, resilience, and diaspora through the love of food.

About this Product

A savory, nutty spice blend co-created with iconic cookbook author and television host Padma Lakshmi. Made with dry-roasted lentils + spices, this blend shines when paired with a fat like oil or ghee. Sprinkle over roasted veggies, swirl into marinades, upgrade your grilled cheese, or enjoy the OG way—with a crisp dosa.
