Spice mixes are blended spices or herbs. When a certain combination of herbs or spices is called for in a recipe, it is convenient to blend these ingredients beforehand. Blends such as chili powder, curry powder, herbes de Provence, garlic salt, and other seasoned salts are traditionally sold pre-made by grocers, and sometimes baking blends such as pumpkin pie spice are also available. These spice mixes are also easily made by the home cook for later use.
The Arabic etymology was originally used for perfumery Ingredients only, the word Masalaha مصالحة means reconciliation. In the context of perfumery it's used to refer to fixatives. The Arabic words commonly used for spices are tawābil or bihārāt.
