Baharat Spice Blend

One of the darlings of Middle Eastern cuisine, Baharat spice mix is a staple of the Lebanese and Israeli kitchen. A versatile sweet-meets-savoury blend, Baharat has also become popular in the world of Turkish and Greek cuisine.

Baharat simply means “spice” in Arabic, indicating the all-purpose nature of this spice mix and is commonly found in Middle Eastern souks or outdoor markets. It is used similarly to Garam Masala in Indian cooking, and like Garam Masala, recipes for Baharat vary from region to region.

Spice Zen’s Baharat spice is a red-hued, hand roasted and stoneground spice mix of organic premium spices that infuse dishes with an exotic flavour, aromatics and peppery and warming notes without the need for any chilli-fired heat. Perfectly balanced spices like Cumin, Sweet Paprika, Black Pepper, Cinnamon and Cloves in this blend add a combination of gently, sweet, warm and earthy notes to your dishes.

Baharat is used as a dry rub or marinade on grilled meat or chicken kebabs, steaks, fish and grilled or roasted vegetables such as eggplant and zucchini. Finish cooked fish with an extra sprinkling instead of salt and pepper for added flavour, or blend with olive oil and lemon or lime juice to create a tasty marinade or condiment. Use it to season rice, soups and stews, or as a delectable twist to your favourite hummus, tahini and yoghurt-based dips and salad dressings.

Organic Ingredients: Cumin seed, Sweet Paprika, Black Pepper, Allspice, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Cloves, Coriander seed and Cardamom.
