For Your Spice Rack: Eman’s Saudi Spice Mix
•
I’ve been meaning to try out Eman’s kabuli rice recipe for a while now, but that dish requires Saudi spice or baharat, which I didn’t have on hand nor can easily get at stores. Finally got around to making it over the New Year’s Day long weekend. I only toasted the spices for about 5…
