Afghani spice reflects the flavors of South Central Asia. The comforting spices in this blend will warm your body without giving you the chili heat that is common in Southern and Eastern Asia. Aromatics of cumin, coriander seed, green cardamom, sweet cinnamon, nutmeg and clove combine with black peppercorn, turmeric, nigella and a touch of Himalayan pink salt to provide abundant flavor to any dish. This blend is fabulous as a dry rub on meat or fish or used to flavor a curry. You can also add it to soups, stews, rice and legumes.
