Add flour and whisk constantly until a nice paste has formed. Lower the heat to low and add the spice mixture and again whisk until well blended, aromatic, and darkens slightly in color. Add the tomato paste and whisk to blend. Add the stock about a cup at a time and whisk until smooth before the next addition. Let the sauce simmer about 15 minutes. More liquid can be added if necessary to achieve desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings. Add white vinegar and stir to combine.
