Amazing combination of spices that will hit your entire tounge. Make sure to grind all the spices and if you like it as much as I did consider adding more. I had it with the chickpeas and pine nut onion sause.
Ras el Hanout
The blend's Arabic name translates to "head" or "top of the shop," and variations can contain up to 27 different spices, depending on the recipe. Each spice vendor or Moroccan cook claims his or her version to be the best. We like this versatile mix, which is easy to combine and can be used to perk up roasted vegetable dishes or rice.
Yield: 1/4 cup (serving size: 1/4 teaspoon)
