August's Spice is Garam Masala! Pickup begins August 1st, 2025 at 10:00 AM throughout the month of August, while supplies last.
Join us for our West Linn Public Library Spice Club. Cooking enthusiasts and novices alike may stop by the library and pick up a Spice Club Kit, which includes a spice sampling and recipes. Participants are asked to use the spice in their cooking at home, and can use the recipes provided to them, find a new recipe online, or replace a spice in a favorite recipe.
Kits will be distributed on a first come first serve basis, and will be located next to the Information Desk on the first floor.
The ubiquitous garam masala elevates just about any dish with its signature complexity, versatility, and heat. While every family's recipe is different, garam masala makes up the base of thousands of South Asian dishes and is used amply.
This spice was kindly donated by Diaspora Co.
