Ras el-hanout

"A magical blend from the Maghreb, ras el hanout enhances tagines, couscous and rice"

This beautiful organic ras el hanout blend offers a first whiff of tangy aroma, warm flavors, and the prominent presence of robust, aniseed cumin. Floral notes follow, accompanied by a burst of freshness that blossoms into a cool trail of cardamom and nutmeg. Several spices have been roasted to enhance their flavors.

An exceptional ras el-hanout

The composition of the blend was refined with the help of two clients who are chefs of North African origin. That's why we added cinnamon, pepper, and turmeric to the basic spices.

The fragrance concludes with floral notes of rose, cardamom, and lavender. This creates a distinctive blend that captivates with its mineral, desert-like, gently spicy, and salty character.

Any ideas for using ras el-hanout?

During cooking, the floral notes develop. The lavender also adds a very pleasant touch of bitterness.

Ras el-hanout is obviously associated with North African cuisine. It is used in couscous and tagines. It pleasantly flavors rice when onions and ras el-hanout are sautéed and then simmered, and even more simply in the rice cooking water.

This wonderful blend is perfect for seasoning saucy dishes, such as meatballs, and for enriching tomato sauces in pasta or shakshuka. It adds warmth and aroma to potato salads or even to wilted spinach.

A pinch in mayonnaise and you have a dip for dipping your crunchy vegetables, such as radishes, carrots and fennel.
