2. Bottle sealed and wrapped in cloth for better storage

Beschreibung:: In the final steps, the bottle is sealed with a cap, tightly wrapped in cloth and tied with a string. East Indian families recall a time not so long ago when they collected empty beer bottles to be repurposed for storing masala. Over time, glass bottles have been phased out and replaced with airtight containers, which can store larger quantities and are easy to stack. Bottles are still used, although sparingly.

10. Masala mix pounded by machines

Beschreibung:: In the past, in East Indian neighbourhoods like Vasai (Bassein), it was common to find groups of women (called masalewalis) going from house to house to do the roasting and grounding. Manual pounding was a labour-intensive process spread over two or three days. Over the years, the pounding process has become entirely mechanised. Families now send the masala mix to mills, where it is pounded by machines.
