Instructions
- Crush 2 small pieces of ginger, 1 cinnamon stick, 1 teaspoon peppercorns, 1 star anise, 1 tablespoon dried rose petals, ¼ teaspoon clove, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon cardamom in a mortar and pestle (or bowl) until well broken down and fragrant.
- Toast the crushed spices in a pan over high heat for 20 to 30 seconds, stirring constantly and watching closely so they don't burn.
