Almost every local market has a section where they sell spices. The picture below is one vendor's stall where they also sell dried beans. You can see the scales in the foreground. This is where we bought cinnamon sticks in bulk...1/4 lb.(which is two big handfuls) for $1.
Inside the shop, we found these two pyramids of spices. I believe it is for curry, or sometimes they call the mixture of spices Masala. The scoop is on one of the trays, and would be drawn up through the layers getting some of each spice.
What is that licorice smell? I looked down and there was a whole bag of star anise.
Recipes, please?

I like the shoes included in the photo of the star anise!
