Asian Dry Rub
Spicy meat skewers are popular street vendor fare in Asia. This potent rub approximates that flavor; it's best on dark-meat chicken, strong-flavored fish like salmon or sardines, or any cut of pork. Or sprinkle a little over thickly sliced tomatoes, set them over an unheated section of the grill, and allow them to smoke for a few minutes, just until well marked.
Yield: About 1/3 cup (serving size: 1 teaspoon)
