Making a soup from yesterday's cookbook, brown lentil, carrot and celery, but I had only red lentils, and pumpkin and watercress, so I subbed them.
Pretty good, but the best part was grinding and admiring the spices, seen here. In fact lemon zest (from the freezer, still going strong), coriander seed and cumin seed, seen in that order reading left around to right. I ground the seeds in the coffee mill.
The scent is so good that I wonder if Nick Park can
arrange for Wallace and Gromit to invent a techno-smell app. This little
bowl is like a trio of sound, each scent distinct, then they blend when
you sniff from a bit further away.
Your description actually made my mouth water.
