Recipe Introduction
Dukkah [DOO-kah]
An Egyptian spice blend comprising toasted nuts and seeds, the combination of which varies depending on the cook. Dukka usually has hazelnuts or chickpeas as a base, along with pepper as well as coriander, cumin and sesame seeds. The ingredients are ground together until the texture is that of a coarse powder. Dukka can be sprinkled over meats and vegetables, or used as a dip (preceeded by olive oil) for breads, fresh vegetables and so on. It's available in Middle Eastern markets.
List of Ingredients
1/2 cup sesame seeds (dry roasted)
1/2 cup coriander seeds (dry roasted)
1 cup macadamia & almonds or hazelnuts & almonds (dry roasted)
1/4 cup cumin seed or 2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper
Recipe
Chop the nuts or use a mortar and pestle. Do the same with the seeds, one sort at a time. Take care not to over-process. You can make it as chunky or as fine as you like.
Mix all the chopped nuts and seeds together and add the salt and pepper. Store in an airtight container.
Serve in a small bowl alongside a bowl of Elysian Isle Avocado Oil and some bread. Dip the bread into the oil and then the Dukkah.
