Method:

Combine all the spices in a bowl then add the water a little at a time, beating well after each addition. You are aiming to make a smooth paste about the consistency of waffle batter. When done, store in a jar (it will keep in the refrigerator for up to a month).

This is a critical ingredient in Georgian Basturma.

In Georgia this spice blend can also be served as a snack along with bread to dip in it.
