MIXED SPICE
(Traditional Old Fashioned English Pudding Spice)

Mixed spice is a blend of sweet spices traditionally used in English cooking.
It is essential for fruit cakes, Christmas plum pudding, mincemeat and hot cross buns;
Mixed spice is also a great addition to other fruity desserts such as apple & fruit pies, crumbles and compotes.
Try it in cream cheese desserts, pickles, chutneys and mulled wine too.
Make it up and buy the spices needed in small quantities, as the mixture soon loses its full rich flavour.
Allspice, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and ginger are the usual blend of spices.
Cardamom and coriander are sometimes added.

1 Small Jar
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons allspice
2 inches piece cinnamon sticks
2 teaspoons cloves
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
1 teaspoon ground coriander (optional)

Grind the allspice, cinnamon and cloves to a fine powder
and then mix well with the ground nutmeg and ginger.
Add the finely ground cardamom and corainder seeds, if using, and mix well again.
Use at once or store in an airtight jar in a cool dry place, and away from light.
