Kaffe Baharat Sheet Pan Brussels

13 min

Caught a whiff of our newest blend, Kaffe Baharat, and inspiration struck—Brussels sprouts and this mix were destined to be together. The earthy tones from turmeric, toasted cumin, and paprika begged for a companion that was tangy, bright, and sweet. Cue the entrance of pomegranate, two ways! Pomegranate molasses and the bejeweled seeds. I was confident its fruity notes would play beautifully with the urfa biber, rich coffee, and spicy ancho chile in the blend. This side dish is proof that simplicity can be both complex and easy.  

Earl Grey Marshmallows

Making marshmallows is a fun kitchen project for young and old. The gelatin transforms in the mixer from a liquid to a big gooey cloud, and then you get to shmear out the whole mess in a cloud of powdered sugar. What's not to love! And some versions come together to be twice as nice like this elegant one flavored with Earl Grey. This bestselling tea is beloved for its malty rich black tea base scented with bergamot. Infuse that into homemade marshmallows for a special treat for any occasion. Use them in a London Fog Latte or Rice Krispie Treat. You can also keep it simple and pop one on your hot cocoa or in s'mores - or eat them right out of the tray! Homemade marshmallows also make a thoughtful gift.

Advieh Date Bars

Dates deserve more credit! They have a rich, fruity taste, similar to a raisin, with a honey or caramel sweetness. It's a versatile flavor, making them fantastic in all sorts of food. Growing up, I loved the date bars my mother would make from a mix she found at the grocery store. That mix hasn't been available for a long time, but I acquired a recipe from a coworker years later, that makes an excellent substitute. Of course, we couldn't resist giving it a few tweaks...Dates are common throughout Northern Africa and the Middle East, and feature heavily in local cuisines as both a stand-alone snack and an ingredient in sweet or savory dishes. We seasoned these date bars with the Advieh, a Persian spice blend. With a blend of cassia and true cinnamon, cardamom, coriander, and roses, it's an ideal mix to add depth to the natural flavor of the dates. We went light on added sugar for this recipe, letting the natural sweetness of the dates do the heavy lifting. It's a good thing, too, since you won't feel guilty for eating two!
