The candied spice recipe that I want to use is called Halwa Chosk (Toasted
and Crumbled Sweet).  It is a Persian sweet eaten after Sabbath morning
prayers on the anniversary of someone's death (A Yarzeit).  The recipe is
from Copeland Marks' Sephardic Cooking.  

Ingredients:
1cup flour
3 tablespoons oil
1/8 teaspoon ground tumeric
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 cup sugar dissolved in 2 cups of water
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 tablespoons rosewater.

Toast the flour in a pas for 3 minutes.  Add the oil and stir for 7 min
until lumps are gone and mixture is light brown.  Add tumeric and cardamom
and continue to stir.  Add the sugar water 2 tablespoons at a time until
the mixture has the consistency of coarse meal.  Add remaining ingredients
and mix well until mixture is a toasted brown color and has the texture of
bread crumbs.
