Description

A warm, toasty mix of hazelnuts, sesame seeds, and fragrant spices that turns simple bread and olive oil into something extraordinary. This homemade Egyptian dukkah adds a nutty crunch to just about anything, meat, veggies, hummus, or salads.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup (250 ml) hazelnuts
  • 1 Tbsp (12.5 ml) coriander seeds

  • 1 Tbsp (12.5 ml) sesame seeds

  1. Roughly chop the hazelnuts and toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until golden and fragrant. Remove to cool.
