  2. Then let cool and add turmeric.

  3. Then blend in your blender or better yet, your coffee grinder you use ONLY for spices….- yields 1+ cups.

  4. Speaking of coffee grinders, a friend of mine prior to her getting married shared with me that their coffee grinder was on the way out. I suggested I would offer to get the happy couple a new one as part of my wedding present - and since they are major cooks, I ended up buying them two - one for solely using it as a spice grinder. Making your own spice mixes and mustards for example its super easy and amazing.
