Labneh Dip with Tabil Spice

10 min

This labneh dip is a creamy dream topped with Tabil spice’s aromatic blend of coriander and caraway. A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a scatter of olives make this dip irresistibly rich and flavorful. Perfect with flatbread, it's a Mediterranean masterpiece in every bite!

Tabil Plantain Chips

At the shop, we are frequently asked, "what spice is underrated?" The Tunisian blend Tabil is our go-to answer. It's a simple blend consisting of caraway, garlic, chile flakes, and coriander. All of the spices get toasted to bring out their nutty, umami notes. We took green (under ripened) plantains to another level by thinly slicing, then frying them until crispy. Once done, we added a mixture of Tabil, salt and a little bit of brown sugar. This snack is addictive and full of flavor. These are delicious with a dip like hummus or as a crunchy topping on rice and beans or a salad. Have fun playing with this blend - it's bold, savory flavor has found its way into most of our daily staples.

Steve's Sweet and Spicy Drumsticks

We are always on the lookout for new and interesting spice combinations, and this one is fabulous! It came from our globe trotting friend and fan, Steve R., and features the savory spice blend Tabil along with Piri Piri Blend and Smokin' Hot Garlic Pepper bringing the heat. The drumsticks get a quick brine to help them retain moisture and the spices flow into a sweet citrus sauce that hits all the hot-sour-salty-sweet flavors that shine in Asian cuisine. Steve was inspired by his travels - and love of street food - to create this fusion BBQ sauce, and we are so happy that he shared this recipe! We're planning to try it on wings next.
