Spice 101

Summary

Advieh is a Persian and Iranian signature spice blend, revered for its ability to seamlessly combine sweet and savory notes. Our blend includes an exotic mix of sweet cinnamon, cardamom seed, and roses, which are grounded by the earthiness of cumin and black pepper, and finished with a bright pop of Indian coriander. This blend is salt-free, enhancing its appeal by allowing the natural flavors of the spices to shine through.

History

Advieh plays a central role in Persian and Iranian cuisines, regions known for their rich culinary histories that date back thousands of years. This spice blend is traditionally used to season meats like lamb and chicken, or to enhance the flavors of rice pilafs and sweets. The blend's components such as cinnamon and cardamom have been traded on the Silk Road and used in various traditional dishes, reflecting the historical spice trade's influence on Persian cuisine. Across different regions, the composition of Advieh might vary slightly, incorporating local spices or adjusting the ratios, but the core elements remain, showcasing a culinary tradition that has evolved yet stayed true to its roots.

Why We Love It

Advieh is a fantastic way to introduce complexity into simple dishes. The floral notes from the roses provide a subtle fragrance that is uncommon in many other spice blends, making it a unique addition to our spice cabinet. Plus, it's a wonderful substitute for cinnamon in baking, adding a twist to familiar recipes.

The More You Know

Did you know that Advieh can be used in baking? Next time you're whipping up a batch of cookies or a spice cake, try substituting your regular cinnamon with Advieh for a floral and uniquely spiced twist. It's a small change that can make a world of difference.
