Omega Seven Spices: warm Levantine baharat blend for kibbeh, kofta, shawarma and rice. Single 1 kg pack.
Seven spices, or baharat, is a warm Lebanese and Levantine blend, often including allspice, black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, coriander and ginger. It seasons kibbeh, kofta, stuffed vegetables, shawarma, lentil soups, rice with minced meat and slow-cooked stews. Mix a teaspoon into minced meat with onion and parsley, or rub it over chicken before roasting. Its fragrant, gently sweet warmth makes it a cornerstone of home cooking across the region. Baharat is a Middle Eastern blend of finely ground spices often used to season lamb, fish, chicken, beef and soups. Keep the blend airtight and away from the hob so its layered aroma lasts. In Lebanese homes the blend is sometimes called sabaa baharat, and each family adjusts the mix. It is used in kibbeh, stuffed vine leaves, mujaddara and roast chicken with rice, and a pinch also seasons tomato sauces and lentil soups.
