The people of the Mediterranean love eggs. Street vendors sell them hard-cooked for dipping into spicy mixtures. They are considered appetizer, lunch or dinner items as opposed to the Americans breakfast fare.
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 tablespoon coarse salt
6 hard-cooked eggs, cut into halves or quarters
In small dry pan over medium heat, combine the coriander and cumin seeds and toast, stirring or shaking the pan, until fragrant, just a few minutes. Transfer to a mortar and crush with a pestle, or grind in a spice mill.
Place in a shallow bowl and stir in the salt. Each diner dips the egg pieces into the spiced mixture.
Serves: 6
