The supermarkets in Crete often sell little 50g packets of pre-mixed local spices. Whilst a bit pricey for what they are these mixes do have great flavour so it was high time I cloned them.

Preparation

  1. Grind the oregano and black pepper.
  2. Add the other ingredients
  3. Store in an airtight container in a cool dark place
  4. Will last months, but best used within a few weeks
