I did add cloves because I love em and this recipe left them out. But this recipe was excellent and much cheaper than "store bought". HINT! If you have a middle-Eastern market near you, buy your spices there in bulk. You'll find an amazing assortment and unbelievable prices, as well.

Perfect!!! Much better than any pre-mix you would buy at the store.

This was excellant! I saw the others that had cinnamon and ginger but didn't think they'd suit what I had in mind. I halved the recipe and still got 1/3 cup?? Thanks for sharing your recipe.

I used this recipe in Czech Goulash and it was great. Very easy to put together. Still have some left for next time.

This worked very well for what I needed. I added the cloves as well since this is standard for pickling spice. I used it for hot pepper relish, similar to Harry & David's. Thanks for posting!
