Lentil soup with potatoes carrots celery and onion and spiced with berbere seasoning and galangal
Have been to Penzeys spices a few times :p
A grapefruit
This is unbelievable. What a coincidence: i've just been reading about galangal on the site of one of our vegetarian shops. I found the description very intriguing. But then it was written that when galangal is perfectly dried, it has mostly the cinnamon flavour. ...Is that true? If so, -then i won't be able to consume it.:sigh:

I don't think so! I only like cinnamon in sweet things, but galangal I would use in hot/sour soup, curries, rice dishes- like a pungent curry powder type, more like cardomon, a strong ginger with a kinda 'aged' taste if that makes sense. More savory- I would not use this in sweet dishes. Umani
Now I want to try it fresh! I know it's in my favorite frozen tamarind rice entree I get at the Indian store
