How to Make Almond Dukkah

  1. Toast the seeds and spices: In a medium fry pan over low heat, toast the sesame seeds (2 tablespoons), fennel seeds (1 teaspoon), cumin seeds (1 teaspoon), coriander seeds (1 tablespoon), and salt (1/2 teaspoon) and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon) for 5 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
  2. Cool completely: Remove from heat and let the spice and seed mixture cool completely (approximately 15 minutes). This prevents the almonds from becoming oily in the food processor.
  3. Combine and process: Add the toasted almonds (1 cup) to a food processor along with the cooled spice and seed mixture.
  4. Pulse to desired consistency: Pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse powder. Do not over-process; you want some texture remaining.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Sprinkle generously over your favorite dishes! Perfect with olive oil and Turkish bread, or as a flavorful crust for chicken, fish, or vegetables.
