I love the taste of a good dill pickle, the snap, the tang… that sour tastes that hits you on the sides and back of your tongue… yum. I wanted the ability to duplicate that taste on other things like veggies, chicken, fish… The lot I could not really get what I was after until I added one obvious ingredient. Vinegar powder… This stuff is awesome. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make spice essentials: spicy awesome dill shake

Step 1

PREP/PREPARE

Step 2

To make this recipe you need a spice grinder, good blender, or a mortar & pestle. In addition, you will need a skillet, to toast the spices, and a container like an old glass spice bottle.
Step 3

If stored correctly (good container, tight-fitting lid, cool, dark place), this spice should last 8 – 10 months, or longer.
Step 4

I have discovered my new best friend… Powdered Vinegar. Hard to find in some stores but easy/peasy on Amazon, it give dishes, and spice mixes a tang that you cannot get any other way.
Step 5

Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
Step 6

Add the whole spices to a skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 7

Toss until fragrant and beginning to brown, about 2 – 3 minutes.
Step 8

Do NOT let them burn.
Step 9

Grind, while still warm, using a spice grinder, good blender, or a mortar & pestle.
Step 10

Add all the ingredients together, in a small bowl.
Step 11

Whisk to combine
Step 12

Place in a sealed container, in a cool/dark place, until needed.
Step 13

If you use the proportions listed in this recipe, it will be enough to fill an old glass spice jar... Perfect.
Step 14

PLATE/PRESENT
Step 15

Sprinkle on things like fish, chicken, and or veggies. I used it to make some homemade, oven-baked dill chips and they were awesome. Enjoy.

Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
