Dukkah
Dukkah is a nut lover’s dream come true! An Egyptian nut and spice blend that can be used to add flavor and texture to many recipes, or – my favorite – served on its own, with olive oil, for dunking bread!
Ingredients
- ½ cup raw hazelnuts
- ¼ cup raw walnuts
- ¼ cup raw almonds
- ¼ cup white sesame seeds
- ¼ cup roasted pistachios
- 2 teaspoons coriander seeds
- 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon sweet or hot paprika, (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF
- Spread all the raw nuts and seeds in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast for 5 minutes. Stir and return to the oven for another 3 minutes or until they smell nutty. Do not overdo it as they can burn and turn bitter!Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.
- Place the toasted nuts and seeds in the jar of a food processor. Add the pistachios, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, paprika (if using), pepper and salt. Pulse a few times, until coarsely ground.
- Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
- Serve immediately or transfer the dukkah to an airtight jar to store at room temperature for up to 1 month.
