How to Make Toasted Spice Blend Africa Morocco

  1. Combine all spices in a medium bowl.
  2. Spread the spice mixture in a thin, even layer in a dry, light-colored skillet (a light-colored skillet helps you monitor toasting).
  3. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently with a spatula, until fragrant and just beginning to smoke. Be careful not to burn the spices; reduce heat if necessary.
  4. Immediately remove from heat and let cool completely. The spices will continue to toast slightly as they cool.
  5. Once cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
