Thanks for this - I've always wondered about the ingredients and now I can emulate it perfectly! -
What meat is it best for

Hi Paula, My favorite is duck, but it works well with chicken too, depending on what you are serving it with. Fun fact, I like to use it in place of plain cinnamon for cinnamon-sugar toast. Just makes a childhood favorite feel much more grown-up! -
Is there a course on the art of blending spices? -

Hi Carleen, We don't offer a course on spice blending and I'm not familiar with with such a standalone course. Consider checking online to see if you find something that meets your desire! ~Eric
