Aromatic Salt

[pigletwillie]

This is used a lot in indian cuisine but is also useful to perk up all manner of dishes

Aromatic Salt

100g coarse sea salt such as Malden
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Just grind and store in an airtight jar

If you want it spicier

take the salt from above and add

1 teaspoon dried mint
1/2 teaspoon dried fenugreek
1 teaspoon ground almonds
1/2 teaspoon tumeric

Again these are much used recipes from the "curry bible"

Add some dried chilli flakes and I'm there!

Cheers dude.
