dukkah spice blend by Ranelle

Dukkah 

Dukkah, an Egyptian nut & spice blend, is the perfect topping for salads or grilled fish. I use it weekly to jazz up a simple salad. My current favorite is tossing grilled asparagus spears with fava beans, fresh mint, a generous pinch of dukkah, and olive oil. Serve over rice topped with yogurt, and you have yourself a satisfying pilaf. 

But don't take my word for it, taste for yourself:

¼ cup coriander seeds
2 tablespoons cumin seeds
1 tablespoon black peppercorns

1 ½ teaspoons dried mint leaves

​
Place a skillet over medium-high heat and toast the coriander, cumin, peppercorns, caraway, and fennel until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Put spices into a spice grinder or mortar and grind/crush to a powder. Add the sesame seeds, hazelnuts, mint, and sea salt.
