Garam Masala

So you want to make an Indian dish! Yay! Chances are your recipe calls for something called garam masala. You COULD go to the store, find out that they don't have it, drive to another store, discover they don't have it either, and eventually end up at Whole Paycheck Foods and trade your first born child for a spice!!

Save your first born and make it yourself! It's easy! If you only make even a few Indian dishes, you'll use several of the special spices that you'll have to buy to make this. So, no worries!

Here's what you need:

 

Measure all of your spices into a small bowl

Stir it up and pour it into an airtight container of your choice! For me, you can see that I'm reusing a ground cumin jar! :)

Now it's ready to use any time you need it!
