Berbere is a traditional blend from Ethiopa and Eretria. The flavors are robust and feature a range of spices. The combination of heat from ginger and chiles alongside aromatics like cardamom, cinnamon and nutmeg make this unusual mix a power-house of flavor. 

Traditionally used to season the various lentil stews called "wats", it can also be used as a rub on chicken and lamb. Berbere has a wonderful flavor affinity with tomato, so try it in your favorite recipes for tomato based soups or chili.
