Garlic Spice Salt




Source of Recipe


Brad O.


List of Ingredients




1 head of garlic

1 cup kosher sal

2 teaspoons cumin seeds

1 teaspoon coriander seeds

4 cardamom pods

1 teaspoon black peppercorns

1 teaspoon white peppercorns

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

6 whole cloves

1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg



Recipe



Peel the garlic and combine with the salt in a mortar or deep bowl. With a pestle or the back of a heavy spoon, crush the garlic cloves into the salt until the salt is damp and smells of garlic. Strain the salt through a coarse sieve to remove the garlic pulp.

In a small carbon-steel wok over low heat, toast the cumin, coriander, cardamom, black and white peppercorns, allspice, and cloves. Cool, and grind in a spice grinder or blender. Add the nutmeg and then the spice mixture to the garlic salt, tossing to mix well. Transfer to a glass jar, and store, covered, in the refrigerator; the salt will keep for several weeks.

YIELD: 1 Cup
