Unfortunately I have not thought of when reading that this is whole grains' grind on the court at the end of cooking spice "is. Since I have received the "Miracle Chicken" in a simple box, so I have to grind themselves only to the powder blend of spices, so that it can be used. In other words, I have a subset of the mortar give (thank God I have a) or a spice mill buy. This requires additional kitchen items and working hours. Therefore, I agree with the reviewer who recommends the components of the spice mix to buy separately.
