garlic, cumin and coriander seeds, and salt to taste. Pound to a smooth

olive oil, then seal jars and refrigerate.

AuthorNote: I can see adding cilantro. You might want to add mint. What
about preserved lemons? Michael W. has had his preserved lemons for over a
year. He will start anew when the next batch of Meyer lemons arrive from
his in-laws in Arizona.
