■ Development Background
Concept: "An Approach to Women's Health and Future Through Food"
In the midst of busy modern daily life, making meals a "time to get balanced"—that is the fundamental idea behind the birth of this curry.
We aim to create food that connects with society, considering not only health but also nature, agriculture, regional revitalization, women's economic independence, and even its use as emergency and stockpile food.
① Posthumous Recipe of the Original Curry Researcher, Mr. Kazuhiro Ono
The culmination recipe of a leading figure in the Japanese curry world, who visited over 4,000 curry restaurants, passionately poured into until just before his passing. "If making this curry, it must be Canyon Spice"—we have given it form, holding onto those words.
② Saitama-produced Moringa x Saitama's Long-established Spice Manufacturer
The "Miracle Tree" known as Saitama-produced Moringa and Indera Co., Ltd.'s traditionally pounded "Indera Curry" powder, established in 1959, merge. It supports beauty, gut health, and immunity, and also has potential as a stockpile food.
