Title: Advieh (Persian Spice Mixture)
Categories: Israel Jewish Persian
Yield: 1 Servings

1	ts	Ground cinnamon
1/4	ts	Ground cardamon
1/4	ts	Ground cloves
1/4	ts	Ground ginger

The Chinese have a mix called five-spice and Indians have garam masala. The Persian advieh is an aromatic mixture that can be heightened by doubling amount of ginger. I prefer proportions given here, which are balanced & will intensify herb flavor in various dishes to which it is added. 1. Mix everything together & store in jar w/tight cover for use when needed.
