SpicesYou can purchase this spice readymade however mixing it together yourself adds that extra flavour. The smell of the spice mix is enchanting.

  • 1   cinnamon stick
  • 1  tsp whole cloves
  • 1  tsp fennel seeds
  • 1  star anise
  • 1  tsp szechuan peppercorns

Break the cinnamon stick up into two or 3 pieces. Place with the rest of the ingredients into a coffee grinder and grind till all spices break up into a powder.

The smell is amazing. You could make a double batch and store in an airtight container for future use.

 

We forgot to purchase the spice so we decided to mix it ourselves – now we never buying the spice mix again.
