Description Excerpted from onegreenplanet.org:
Don't let their name fool you, curry leaves and curry powder are miles apart. While curry powder is a blend of warm, aromatic herbs and spices created by the British, curry leaf is an herb used in Indian cuisine. It comes from a tropical plant called the curry tree, also known as curry plant, that is native to India and Sri Lanka. Curry trees bear fragrant, teardrop-shaped green leaves, which are practically omnipresent in South Indian cooking.
Important Details:
This is a shipment of Fresh Indian Curry Leaf. Our leaf is inspected and certified by the USDA usually every Tuesday. Shipment is by USPS priority or First Class mail the same day from Phoenix, AZ USA.
Perryville Farms is an specialty grower of Asian produce, located in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. We specialize in Indian Curry Leaf and Moringa Oleifera. We also offer other seasonal produce, including Paan Leaf. Most of our business is subscription wholesale supply to Asian restaurants and grocers. We are able to supply any regular quantity from 1 to 50lbs per week.
Our curry leaf is delivered in full compliance with the law and regulations regarding the restricted interstate movement of Curry Leaf. Curry Leaf harbors an invasive species known as the Asian Citrus Psyllid which is a carrier of the Huanglongbing, citrus greening disease. Our agreement with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) requires us to wash the leaf that we ship interstate to ensure that our produce is not infected and that we are not spreading this plant disease. Per our agreement with the USDA we wash and have every shipment independently inspected for signs of the insect or the disease. Neither disease nor insect has been found in our crops, as of 2019.
Our interstate shipments bear a certificate with a seal of inspection certifying compliance with our agreement with the USDA. Having this certificate is the only legal way to ship Curry Leaf across state lines. Produce shipped with an inspection certification has been inspected in compliance with APHIS regulations regarding the restricted interstate movement of Curry Leaf (Bergera or Murraya Koenigii) by the authoritative federal and/or cooperating state agency. It is not legal to ship Curry Leaf across state lines or quarantined boundaries without an USDA Inspection Stamp and Seal.
We wash our produce with organic veggie wash prior to final inspection and sealing. In order to keep our produce quality high, we DO NOT use bromination, irradiation, or pesticides. Our process takes 24-48 hours and allows us to proved a safe, high quality and fresh product to market and consumers.
