Gather the ingredients: 2 whole nutmegs; 50 g Ceylon cinnamon; 30 g allspice berries; 20 g cloves; 20 g sweet almonds; Optional: a little mace.
Step 2
Break the cinnamon and nutmegs into small pieces. Combine with the allspice, cloves, sweet almonds and optional mace.
Step 3
Grind in small batches using a mortar or a spice grinder suitable for hard spices and nuts. Pause to avoid heating the mixture or turning the almonds into a paste.
Step 4
Pass through a very fine sieve, regrinding the coarse pieces. Mix thoroughly and transfer to a clean, dry airtight jar.
Step 5
Keep cool, dry and away from light. Use sparingly as a spice blend; discard if the almonds develop a rancid smell.
