Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon Coriander
- 1 teaspoon cloves
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients in a small bowl and mix together well. Store at room temperature in a sealed container.
- You can also make this starting with whole spices in part or full - just use equal volumes of the ground form, or take a best-guess from whole ingredients. Start by gently toasting most of the spices (cumin, coriander, cloves, allspice, cinnamon stick) in a dry skillet/frying pan to bring out their flavor. Nutmeg can also be freshly grated but does not really need toasted.

Notes
- If using the spice blend to season ground meat, you typically use roughly 1tsp per 1lb (450g) of ground meat. Amounts used for other uses can vary.
