Masala, how was it?

Recipe on another page.
Ok, we ate the pork shoulder last night, I really like the new spice.  However, Next time, I may use more or try it in a sauce where it's flavor can really shine through.

Well, firstly, I guess it's called Garam Masala.  It is commonly found in Indian and South Asian Cuisines.
It is a combined spice comprised of Coriander, Ginger, Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Cumin, Black and Green Cardamom (huh, never heard of green cardamom),cloves, bay leaves, and nutmeg.  Seems like it would do well in spice cookies too.

Yay, a new spice ! Do you have any recipes or ideas from cooking with Masala?  Please feel free to share your comments.
