An exotic, spicy and floral fragrance with a robust yet subtle taste

Ras el Hanout has a reputation as the pinnacle of allspice blends. The name Ras el Hanout, loosely translated, means "head of the shop" and is intended to represent the best the spice merchant has to offer. What makes this blend so special is the number of ingredients, sometimes over twenty, and the subtle way in which all these unique spices meld together to create a balanced, full-flavored blend without any harsh edges. Ras el Hanout is subtly curry-like with a spicy yet floral fragrance and a robust yet subtle flavor. When sprinkled on chicken and fish before frying, grilling, or baking, it imparts a golden color and a mild, aromatic heat that is very pleasant. Ras el Hanout pairs well with lamb, game, tagines, and couscous dishes.


Uses: Pairs well with lamb, game, tagines, and couscous dishes. It's a highly versatile spice used to add color and captivating flavor. Sprinkle on chicken and fish before roasting, grilling, or baking. Or add 1/2–1 teaspoon to a cup of couscous or rice, or use it as a rub on your favorite grilled meat. Create a marinade by mixing it with olive oil and lemon juice. Recipes at epicspice.com.
