Recipe

• 1 notes: prepare recipe exactly as directed. do not omit accent seasoning (it lends the authentic sweet flavor). egg white powder is sold in health food stores. finely grind required herbs and spices separately in a clean spice mill or coffee grinder. use a pepper mill to medium-grind tellicherry peppercorns. i recommend mccormick brand tellicherry black pepper, marion-kay brand ground ginger, ground (winter) savory, and hickory smoke seasoning, and williams-sonoma brand ground tahitian vanilla bean. winter savory may be substituted with the following blend (grind ingredients in a spice mill, then use 1 teaspoon): 1/4 teaspoon ground chamomile, 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon ground parsley, 1/4 teaspoon ground rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon ground thyme, 1/8 teaspoon ground dried lemon peel, 1/8 teaspoon ground mint.
