“If angels sprinkled a spice from their wings, this would be it” wrote Penny Knickerbocker in Saveur (US) magazine. What is it? This spice of angels is known as Fennel Pollen , and it is the new darling of the trendsetters. Golden in colour and tenderly anise-flavoured, it is now available from Herbie’s Spices in a three gram pack for $9.95.
With a good vanilla powder finally available to us, we’ve also been playing with a blend of treats from the New World … vanilla, chocolate, chilli … along with sugar, cassia, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, rose petals, and organic strawberry powder. This sweet dust is perfect for sprinkling over those other New World discoveries dear to us all, coffee and hot chocolate. Keep a shaker of our sweet Spice Dust close by your home coffee machine - Montezuma would be jealous if he could see what he missed! Not just for your hot drinks, you can use this delicious blend in any sweet cooking, even on porridge or mashed bananas.
Just what is that Mexican ingredient, mole? Basically it is a paste, usually containing spices – guacamole is a well-known mole. Although many people associate mole with chocolate, Mole Poblano is one of the very few that contains chocolate, and is possibly one of the more famous moles for this reason. The inclusion of chocolate melted into a thick paste of cooked chipotle, mulato, ancho and pasilla chillies makes a truly delicious and surprisingly not-too-hot sauce for chicken. Anyone who has chosen to make the famous Mole Poblano from scratch knows how time-consuming it is for a busy cook. There is a basic mole recipe on the back of our Ancho Chilli pack, but now we’ve made it even easier for you with our Mole Poblano Spice Mix . You can put this delicious meal on the table 30 minutes after starting your cooking.
