Baharat means spices in Arabic, and this wonderfully complex blend has a unique balance of spicy flavors. Savory and slightly sweet, with a lingering heat, this can be an all-purpose blend with a definite Middle Eastern twist.
Baharat blend is often used in the Persian Gulf area to add spice and a little heat to ground meat dishes, couscous, vegetables & vegetable stuffing, and Tunisian egg tagines. The sublty exotic flavors of this blend are wonderful for MedRim style cooking, and an easy way to spice up simple dishes like rice and meatballs.
Hand mixed from: Tellicherry black pepper, coriander, cumin, Ceylon select cloves, Saigon cinnamon, cardamom, Spanish paprika and Chinese Tien Tsin chile peppers.
Reminds me of my of safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.
