Looks good! Homemade masala is so much nicer than store bought. I have some pictures of me making garam masala on my blog if you want to check it out: http://mangosoup.blogspot.com/2009/08/making-spice-masalas-garam-masala.html

Jude — making sauerkraut at home is actually really easy! and it’s not stinky or anything like that! I like that I can control the level of sourness — I like it best ‘half-sour’, after it’s been fermenting for about two weeks.

I’d be so happy if I had a nearby source for fresh sauerkraut. That’s one thing I definitely wouldn’t want to make at home :)

denise — oh Bi-Rite! I miss it! that spice rubs looks awesome. I started leaving my spice grinder permanently plugged in, so I end up grinding fresh spices much more often that I used it. Also, the Rainbow Grocery at 13th & Folsom has an amazing selection of whole spices in bulk

amanda — so good to hear from you! any chance you’ll be visiting Europe anytime soon?

i will absolutely give your garam masala recipe a go. i adore the scent of toasting spices! i used to make a black bean salad that called for toasting cumin seeds – that’s how i got started. recently i made these fabulous pork chops with a homemade dry rub. i loved the recipe title “Mom’s Perfect Pork Chops & Dad’s Dry Rub”. http://elise.com/recipes/archives/001904moms_perfect_pork_chops.php
i used some beautiful niman ranch chops from the bi-rite market in san francisco’s mission district – heavenly! keep up the creativity!
