Ruby Boil Spice Mix
The quintessential spice mix for a seafood boil. Feel free to double or triple the recipe and use in place of Old Bay or the like whenever you're boiling seafood.
Ingredients:
1 large bunch fresh thyme
15 to 20 bay leaves
1/4 cup paprika
1 head garlic, unpeeled
2 tablespoons mustard seeds
1 1/2 tablespoons cardamom seeds
1 tablespoon allspice berries
1 tablespoon celery seed
1 cinnamon stick
Preparation:
Combine the ingredients in a medium bowl, then transfer the mixture to a sealable container. This keeps, sealed, more or less indefinitely. Makes enough for a 6- to 10-quart boil
