Recipe Tips
For truly exceptional results, consider investing in whole spices and grinding them just before mixing your blend. Freshly ground cinnamon sticks, whole nutmeg, and whole allspice berries provide significantly more flavor than pre-ground versions. A dedicated coffee grinder used only for spices makes quick work of this process. If you do use pre-ground spices, purchase from a store with high turnover or a dedicated spice shop rather than spices that might have been sitting on grocery store shelves for months.
