Garam Masala

• 1/3 cup cumin seeds
• 3 tablespoons coriander seeds
• 3 (4 inch) cinnamon sticks, broken into pieces
• 5 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 5 whole star anise pods
• 14 green cardamom pods
• 1 teaspoon whole cloves
• 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
• 1 teaspoon ground mace

1. Toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, cinnamon sticks, bay leaves, nutmeg, anise pods, cardamom pods, cloves, peppercorns, and mace together in a skillet over medium heat until very fragrant and you can literally see the scent rising into the air, 8 to 12 minutes; remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
2. Pour the spice mixture into a grinder; grind into a fine powder. Store in an airtight container.
