Oct. 3rd, 2002 11:00 pmI bought myself one of those combination pepper mills and salt shakers.
I'm thinking of getting another one and filling it with some other grindable seed so that I can have it fresh whenever I want. Any recommendations?
My first instinct is to get a bunch of different seeds and make curry powder. I hesitate slightly, because I have to buy like six different kinds of things. All the curry powder recipes I see call for you to put the turmeric in already ground, which strikes me as somehow problematic for dispensing alongside whole peppercorns and seeds. But if it did work, my favorite curry recipes would become even favoriter.
On a side note, I found a tomato-tofu sauce with Iron Chef Morimoto's name on it at Trader Joe's last night. I think I'll make lasagna with it this weekend.
