When substituting spices, start with half the amount the recipe calls for (unless directed otherwise) and add to suit your taste:
Allspice, ground = ground cinnamon, nutmeg or cloves
Chili powder = dash of bottled hot pepper sauce plus equal measures of ground oregano and cumin
Cloves, ground = ground allspice, cinnamon or nutmeg
Cumin, ground = chili powder
Mustard, dry, 1 teaspoon = 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
Paprika = cayenne pepper (just a dash...it's hotter than paprika!)
Cayenne pepper, ground, 1/8 teaspoon = 2 to 3 drops bottled hot pepper sauce
