This
baharat blend, based on an old Turkish recipe is beautifully
balanced with the sweetness of cassia and cardamon, the scent
of cloves and nutmeg and a discreet heat from the black pepper.
A truly versatile blend often seen in the middle east and
gulf states in various forms, baharat can be used to spice
your food before cooking with a pinch of salt or add a little
baharat just before serving in a similar way to garam masala
to keep the freshness of the blend and maximise the impact
of the beautiful sweet aroma.

(mackerel, salmon, sardines etc). Good seasoning to have for
a barbeque. Add a pinch of baharat to soups, stews or even
tomato sauces.

lentils, tomato, beef, lamb, garlic, aubergine, rice |
