4-spice

4-spice can often be found ready-made, but it's also really easy to make at home.

The traditional 4-spice mix contains nutmeg, cinnamon, clove and ginger. According to your preferences, you can replace the ginger with cardamom, pepper or even chili. 

4-spice is mostly used in holiday baking such as in gingerbread or Christmas cookies, but can also be used to spice up meatballs, tomato-based sauces or even duck.
