Hi Marie, I'm pretty new too, it's an awesome place, you won't believe how quickly your BIR will improve if you follow the pointers on the site! Great stuff, enjoy 

Steve,

Welcome to the discussion board.

I have no issue with you promoting your business and i wish you every success.
Curry-Recipes probably need a good endorsed spice supplier for all our members to use.

Stew - I have sent you a PM as well.

We'd love to fill the roll!  We'll do what we can to 'bring it to the table' - Phil has given us some good input which we're in the process of sorting. We've put a BIR ingredients collection together on the site and a 10% discount (a starting point, perhaps we can do the odd competition with you guys, volume discounts - whatever works).

Everyone welcome to throw ideas and feedback into the pot!

PS. love the new design!

Hi Phil,

Asafoetida has been fun for us; we had a supplier but received a poor batch and an 'oh well' response, so they are gone.  The blend we have (no flours or fillers) has been going well but we'll renew efforts for a dependable resin source.

Our ground Kashmiri we're really pleased with and now have whole dried peppers in stock - they will get published to site this week.

We've just put a sampler pack together so anyone can try some key ingredients without having to buy full packs.  As always, feedback appreciated! http://spicewells.co.uk/products/bir-sampler

Cheers, Steve at Spicewell's

Nowt to do with me, Steve.  Stew is the boss here.  But as far as I'm concerned, an honest post that doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is (a promotion for a business) should be fine.  Good luck, and let me know if you expand into Cornwall -- my wife owns a hotel there, and as the cuisine includes Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese and Malay, spice blends may well be of interest.

Cheers Phil, I'll have to drop a line on Stew.  I think we could do a 10% discount straight away and if it goes well perhaps increase it.  I've put a collection together on the site ( http://spicewells.co.uk/collections/british-indian-restaurant-bir ). If members let us know if there's anything missing well do what we can to round out the perfect BIR collection.

If anyone wants a discount please just leave a comment here and we'll get it sorted.

Have you wife take a look Phil, if there's anything she'd like to try please email us.

Best, Steve at Spicewell's

Hi from North Devon, UK.

My name's Steve, I love the flavours of Indian cuisine, I've made a few spice blends which I've had good feedback on and I'm now embarking on this new addiction of the perfect BIR (not least of all that I'm 40 minutes drive from the nearest decent curry house)!

Ghee, got to say that this forum seems a good place to learn. Glad to have found it and look forward to picking up good tips, advice and at some time in the future being able to give back.

Right, there's a curry needs cooking!
