Ground Bengali five-spice mix

Grind the same weight freshly; toast lightly first. This is the exact flavour.

For 5 g ground panch phoron, mix about 1 g each ground cumin, ground fennel seed, ground mustard seed, ground fenugreek and ground black cumin; toast before grinding. Lacks nigella.

Use with equal ground cumin and ground mustard seed as a rough blend, about 1.5 times the total weight; sweeter and missing fenugreek/nigella.
