I just got this tip from Kallah Maguire via comments. She says:
For anyone in LA, I just visited an amazing spice store today in Silver Lake. It’s called the Spice Station (http://spicestationsilverlake.com) and they have an amazing selection and really reasonable prices. They hubby and I picked up some white peppercorns, long black peppercorns, sweet smoked paprika, and ghost pepper salt. We got to smell and taste everything before we bought, and they owner is really knowledgeable.
So if you’re in LA or passing though I highly recommend visiting the Spice Station. It’s also the cutest little store with a beautiful courtyard and fountain in front.
I really want some of that sweet smoked paprika… yum! I’ll try to post a recipe that incorporates it. Thanks for the tip, Kallah!
