Provided by Samira

Categories     DIYs

Time 8m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium-size cinnamon stick (or 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon)
1 whole nutmeg
1 Tbsp cumin seeds
1 Tbsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp allspice
1/2 Tbsp peppercorn
1 Tbsp ground ginger powder (optional)
1/2 Tbsp cardamom pods (green (optional))

Steps:

  • Bloom the spices in a large, dry (no oil) skillet. To do this, break up the cinnamon into smaller pieces and then add all the whole spices to a pan over medium heat and stir constantly until the spices begin to "pop" and smell fragrant (3-5 minutes).Alternatively, you can spread the spices across a baking tray and bake in a preheated oven for 5-7 minutes at 360ºF/180ºC.
  • Transfer them to a bowl to cool down slightly.
  • Transfer the spice mixture to either an electric coffee/spice grinder OR a high-speed blender (though a larger batch will be needed to work in a blender). Grind into a powder.For a machine-free alternative, you can use a mortar and pestle to manually grind the spices into a powder consistency.
  • Sieve the mixture for a fine powder. If you have enough larger pieces remaining, you can re-grind them once more.
  • Transfer the spice blend to an airtight glass container. It can help to use a funnel.

Lebanese seven spice blend, also known as baharat ("spices" in Arabic), is a classic Middle Eastern blend made with warm spices, including allspice, cumin, cloves and coriander. Different regions within Lebanon have their own recipes and ratios, with some using other spices such as white pepper, fenugreek and/or paprika. Seven spice is what lends distinctive flavor to regional dishes, notably kebabs, koftas and dolmas. You can also use it to flavor meat, vegetables and rice.

This will help to release their flavor and aroma. * Use a mortar and pestle to grind the spices. This will give you a finer grind than a spice grinder. * Store the spice blend in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. It will keep for up to 6 months. * Experiment with different ratios of spices to find the blend that you like best. * Use the spice blend to flavor a variety of dishes, such as grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and soups.
