So often spices are sold in mixes or blends, so you don't know exactly how much of this or that goes into it. Also, with the ongoing and increasing interest in international cuisine, spices that were formerly unheard of, certainly hard-to-find and uncommon, are beginning to find a following.

The mix is not overly spicy (hot) and goes well with e.g. braised lamb, recipes including tomatoes, egg plant and rice.

What a marvelous experience. Thank you for sharing the story and the beautiful photographs. I also have two questions: 1. What goes into Levantine pepper mix? I 2. Did the event hosts provide you with anything to cleanse your palate or your nose? I'm wondering how you kept your senses from becoming overwhelmed with so many scents and tastes around. (I have a vision of a room full of very happy, very sneezy people!) I am (lime) green with envy! What a marvelous experience. Thank you for sharing the story and the beautiful photographs.

Dann aber freute ich mich kurz vor meiner Londonreise über ihr Special (Folge 13) zu dieser Stadt und wollte auch so was machen: Wir laufen rum, kaufen ein und reden, dann wird gekocht. Das haben wir dann letzten Montag gemacht: ein Frühstück im Süß Sauer Salzig eingelegt (Mutprobe – Außerhausfrühstück ist für mich schlimmer als Brunch), viel Spaß im Gmiaskastl gehabt und dann ein klassisches Lammcurry mit Tomaten und Nektarinen gekocht, weil es so schön indisch-englisch ist, weil die Combo Thai-Currypaste+Kokosmlich eh viel zu überschätzt wird und weil ich noch ordentlich 1001-Limettencurrypulver von der Spice Night in der vorletzten Woche in der Tasche hatte.
