My Spice Blends

You asked for it! I've been carefully sourcing my ingredients and testing my spice blend recipes. I'm planning on debuting at least least three blends by the end of December 2007 or mid January 2008. I chose the date because there will probably be a very nice selection of my recipes in a national food magazine at about the same time. My spice blends will be available in stores around the country, to the wholesale trade and via online. I've been talking to buyers from gourmet chains, as well as "ethnic" stores. As regular readers of my blog know I take a cross-cultural approach to not only teaching, but with publicity as well. If you'd like to placed on a pre-order waitlist, please email me with the subject header "Spice Blends".

Tagines Dreams- Saudi Aramco World

Thanks to blog reader Lalla Lydia who told me about Charles Perry's article about me in this month's issue of Saudi Aramco World. I wasn't aware of the Los Angeles Times article being reprinted. I have to say it's an honor. As many readers of this blog know Saudi Aramco World is highly respected for the quality of their articles and photographs. And thank you again to Charles Perry. That article really helped propel my career to the next level.
