I left my ground nutmeg at my SIL's house over the holidays. She came up for a visit and CONVENIENTLY forgot to bring it. :) I thought about calling her to remind her.... :rolleyes: oh well, guess I will just have to put in an order to Penzey's. And there is that unwritten rule that you HAVE to try a new spice if you are ordering, right? Well, 1 or 5... whatever!
New to me: Chesapeake Bay, Epazote, Fox Point, Northwoods Fire and Singapore.
Has anyone tried using the Epazote? I think those around me will appreciate this one :rolleyes:
From Penseys: Epazote
Epazote is traditional for Mexican cooking, adding a sweet, mild flavor of its own to each dish. Historically, it has been used to reduce the intestinal gas that occurs with a diet rich in beans. Many recipes call for epazote, and many people swear by it. Add 1 TB. to a 2-qt. pot of chili or bean soup, or simmer with beans before adding to soup or chili. Chopped, from Mexico.
