“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Garam Masala 3

 

Ingredients

4 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
4 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
2 tsp black peppercorns
1 1 1/2 inch stick cinnamon,
1 broken into small pieces
1 1/2 tsp cardamom seeds (remove them
1 from the pods)
1/2 tsp whole cloves



 

Preparation

1. Heat a small heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the
ingredients, and cook them, shaking the pan, for about 5 minutes or
until the spices are brown but not burned.

2. Transfer the spices to a bowl, and let them cool. In a mortar with
pestle or in an electric coffee grinder or in a spice grinder, grind
the spices to a fine powder. Store the garam masala in an airtight
jar.

Makes about 1/3 cup.

It comes from Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet. at p. 247: "You can
prepare a reasonable garam masala by combining equal amounts of
cardamom, cumin, cinnamon, and coriander, and smaller amounts of
ground cloves and black pepper."

She also provides a "real" recipe for it at p.546 (above).

I have never bothered with the "real" recipe, but have just mixed in
the proportions given in the "easy" recipe, as needed. It's delicious
for all your garam needs!
