2 tbsp dried rosemary
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp garlic powder
4 tsp dried sage
4 tsp black peppercorns
2 tsp mustard powder
2 tsp cumin seeds
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground nutmeg

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

  • Grind the coriander, cumin, salt, rosemary and peppercorns

That's all there is to it!

How to Toast and Grind

Dry toasting and grinding spices is the key to getting the most flavour out of your ingredients and into your home cooking...

Step 1: Add your whole spices to a dry pan over a low to medium heat and whilst stirring or shaking the pan, lightly toast them for a few minutes. When you can really smell the aromas and they start to darken, they're ready.

Step 2: Let them cool and then grind.

Step 3: For a finer blend, put them through a sieve before combining with any ground ingredients and herbs.
