The Moroccan spice blend that saved me
Posted by kathryn in A Balanced Diet
A number of people have asked for the Moroccan spice blend recipe. The mixture I mentioned as one of the five foods that save me when I’m super-busy.
It’s quick and easy to make – no toasting and grinding required. The amounts below make about 1/4 cup of spice mix.
Moroccan spice blend
- 2 teaspoons each of ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, ginger and cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon each of ground white pepper and turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon each of chilli powder and ground nutmeg
Combine all spices and store in a sealed jar. Because spices lose their pungency with age, blend in small batches.
See my original post for suggestions about how to use.
