1

Add 20 grams of cinnamon sticks to the spice grinder. You can break them if you want, but I didn't because my blender is powerful.

2

Add 20 grams of green cardamoms to the spice grinder.

3

Add 20 grams of cloves to the spice grinder. Ensure all spices are of equal proportions for easy measurement.

4

Grind the spices in the spice grinder. Pause from time to time and grind again until you achieve a fine powder.

5

Pass the ground powder through a fine strainer to remove any larger particles.

6

Do not throw away the leftovers in the strainer; put them back into the grinder and grind again.

7

Strain the powder again to remove any remaining larger particles and discard the last bit of leftovers.

8

Store the aromatic powder in an airtight jar. If making in bulk, keep some out and store the rest in the fridge to retain smell and flavor.
