Every Bengali family has their own version of this warm spice blend by varying the proportions, and how long and over what temperature its toasted for. Use a pinch of this warm blend of toasted cardamom, cloves and cinnamon as a finishing spice for savory soups, sauteed or grilled hearty vegetables OR for your sweet bakes such as pies, cakes and cookies. A little goes a long way! No hot peppers!
