An exquisitely savoury golden coppery Yemeni spice blend that’s deeply fragrant.
Origin

How to use
Versatile, the blend has long played a pivotal role in Yemeni and Israeli cuisine. It can be used as a spice rub for slow-pulled pork or beef. A marinade for chicken or fish for those summer barbeque days. It can even be added to soups, stews, pies, “curry-style” dishes, rice and roasted vegetables.
