Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup grated ginger root
  • 10 3 inch cinnamon sticks
  • 1 whole nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp whole allspice
  • 2 tsp whole cloves

Instructions

  • Heat oven to lowest setting. 
  • Place grated ginger on parchment covered baking sheet. 
  • Bake, stirring often, until thoroughly dry.
  • Turn oven off and on as needed, or prop door slightly open with a wooden spoon. If ginger begins to brown, turn off oven and let it dry with the residual heat. This may take up to 2 hours, depending on how juicy the ginger is.
  • Toast the cinnamon sticks and nutmeg, in a skillet over medium low heat, for about 3 minutes. Be sure to stir frequently!
  • Add allspice and cloves and continue to toast for 2-3 minutes, until very fragrant. Remove pan from heat and immediately pour spices onto a plate to cool.
  • Once cool, finely grate the nutmeg into a small bowl. 
  • Using a coffee or spice grinder, grind the remaining spices in several batches. Be prepared – this may make a lot of noise! Sift spices through a fine sieve into the bowl with the nutmeg. 
  • Put any large pieces left in the sieve back into the grinder and grind again
  • Repeat as necessary. If there are some small, stubborn pieces that won’t grind, dispose of them.
  • Whisk together the spices and store in small bottles or sealed bags in a dark, cool location.
