This is a recipe to make your own Baharat, the beautiful Middle Eastern spice blend used for everything from stews to grilled meats, meatballs to Pide toppings. It can sometimes be irritatingly difficult to find, so it's handy to have a recipe - especially because it's made with common pantry spices!Baharat simple means "spices" in Arabic and is uniquely heavy on all-spice and cinnamon. The spice blend I use is based on this Baharat recipe from the website Silk Road Recipes, tweaked a bit to more closely replicate the flavour of the store bought Baharat I use. Large batch makes 1/4 cup, small batch makes just over 1 tablespoon.
