You can buy this ready-made, but it’s really worth it to prepare it yourself. Highly aromatic, for traditional North Indian and Mogul cooking, this spice blend is absolutely essential.
INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp black peppercorns
2 tbsp cardamom seeds
2 tbsp coriander seeds
2 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tsp whole cloves
1 tsp grated nutmeg
2 tsp cinnamon
DIRECTIONS
1. Obtain a heavy-bottomed frying pan or skillet to dry-fry the spices.
2. Put the peppercorns, cardamom seeds, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, cinnamon pieces and whole cloves into the pan over a medium heat. If you use a higher heat than this, you’ll prematurely cook the spices, which leaves the insides of them undercooked.
3. Toast the spices, stirring occasionally until they have become several shades darker. They will also give off a sweet, smoky smell when they are cooked properly, usually about 10 minutes.
4. Transfer the mixture to a mortar & pestle, spice mill, or grinder. Grind to powder.
5. Add grated nutmeg and mix together well.
6. Use mixture immediately or store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 3 months.
Once you’ve made it yourself, trust me, you’ll never go back to store-bought!

Make these to enjoy with dinner tonight—but be careful not to fill up on them! Grab your bread roll fast–they quickly disappear from the table!
INGREDIENTS
2 c Better Batter Gluten Free Flour
1 tsp salt
1/3 c sugar (sugar may be added to taste)
4 eggs
1.5 c milk, milk substitute, or water
poppy seeds, to taste
1 egg-white
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease 1 or two cookie sheets or muffin top tins.
2. In an electric mixer, beat the flour, salt, 4 eggs, sugar and milk or water on high speed for 7-10 minutes. This should produce a batter with the consistency of soft butter-cream icing.
3. Working quickly, spoon this mixture by ½-cup portions onto prepared cookie sheets or muffin top tins. Wet hands and gently smooth and flatten mounds to a width of 3-4 inches and a depth of 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
(Note: If you desire a soft edge to the bun, as with store-bought buns, use a cookie sheet and place mounds so that they touch slightly when flattened. For a crisper crust on all surfaces of the bun, use a muffin top tin or do not allow buns to touch on cookie sheet.)
4. Mix together 1 egg white with a little water and the poppy seeds until well-combined. (I like a heavy amount of poppy seeds.) Brush mixture onto the dough.
5. If desired spray with cooking spray – this will improve the finished appearance and texture of the cooked bun.
6. Place in hot oven and bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
7. Allow to cool completely before slicing.

I’m pleased to say that my popular Gluten-Free “No Pudge” Brownies in a Cup recipe has made it into the latest Vancouver Chapter Canadian Celiac Association’s Newsletter! My “No Pudge” brownies are one of my favorite quick gluten-free desserts. These babies are low-fat and don’t even taste gluten-free. The best part? They take just a minute to make in the microwave!
The CCA is a fantastic organization—what an honor to have my recipe featured by them.

One of my lovely readers purchased Cajun Choices Shrimp, Crab and Crawfish Boil and put her own spin on it. Take a look at what she has to say and check out the Cajun Choice review.
“I love to use my “Crab Boil” for other things besides a base for soups. I actually put it into a salt shaker and sprinkle it on top of chicken, fish, vegetables, etc. I also like to add it to my gluten free flour when i’m breading my chicken to make chicken tenders. I like to use it in replace of salt because of the added spices, which increases the flavor to any dish.”
