Description

A warm, aromatic blend of 20+ spices. Perfect for tagines, rubs, or as a flavorful addition to any dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) ground coriander
  • 2 tsp ground chili powder
  • 2 tsp ground paprika
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp ground allspice
  • 2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground orris root
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground mace
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 3/4 tsp ground fennel seed
  • 3/4 tsp ground anise seed
  • 1/2 tsp ground fenugreek
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 + 1/16 tsp ground dried bay leaves
  • 1/2 tsp ground organic, culinary-grade dried lavender buds
  • 1 1/4 tsp ground organic, culinary-grade dried rose petals

Instructions

  1. Measure out all spices into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk everything together thoroughly for about 1 minute, making sure the smaller quantities (cloves, cayenne, fenugreek) are evenly distributed throughout.
  3. For a finer, more uniform blend, transfer the mixture to a spice grinder and pulse 5-6 times. This helps the flavors marry better when cooking.
  4. Transfer the finished spice mix into an airtight glass jar or container. Label with the date. The blend will keep its potency for about 6 months stored in a cool, dark spot in your pantry.

Notes

  • Adjust the chili powder and cayenne pepper to control the spice level to your preference.
  • For a smoother blend, use a spice grinder to finely process the mixture after combining.
  • This spice mix will keep its best flavor for up to 6 months in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
