Fennel Spice Rub

 

This is spicy, I use this for entertaining, I warm plain potato chips in the

oven at 350 degrees for 4 to 6 minutes. When the oil is visible, I remove them

and sprinkle with the rub, let cool and serve.

 

1 cup fennel seeds

3 tablespoons coriander seeds

2 tablespoons white peppercorns

3 tablespoons kosher salt

 

Place the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a heavy skillet over

medium heat.

Watch carefully, tossing frequently so the seeds will toast evenly.

When light brown and fragrant, pour the seeds onto a plate to cool.

They must be cool before grinding, or they will gum up the blades.

Pour the seeds into a blender(I use a small coffee grinder) and add the salt.

Blend to a fine powder, shaking the blender occasionally to redistribute the

seeds.

Store in a tightly sealed glass jar in a cool, dry place, or freeze.

Makes 1 1/4 cups.
