North African Ras El Hanout Spice Mix, A must for nearly all Tagines, Couscous & North African recipes; I can always obtain it here in France but, as I list this in so many of my recipes I thought I would devise a copycat or cheat’s spice mix which you can make up & have handy! It will be almost impossible to replicate this spice exactly as the orginal can contain up to 50 spices & very exotic ones such as rose petals, lavender, nigella & grains of paradise, but I have tried to incorporoate all the Traditional elements of this exotic mix, with spices that will be easily & readily available in most countries! Store it in an airtight & preferably dark tin/container, and in a cool & dry place; depending on the freshness of the spices you have used & your storage conditions, this should last for up to 6 months You can buy this as Yellow or Red Ras-el-Hanout, I have made up the yellow version – it’s the one I mainly use in my cooking! Please note – this is NOT a hot spice mix – but an aromatic & very fragrant one! If you want to perk it up a bit, add more cayenne pepper I have added optional ingredients – spices which may be difficult to obtain, but if you have them, add them!! Would make a great gift too! Recipes that use Ras-el-Hanout are: Recipe #137530 Recipe #191946 and Recipe #176181, This is WONDERFUL! I had everything on-hand to mix this up, and used the optional saffron used this in recipe#387395 in place of the baharat spice Thanks for posting, I’ll be using this for a variety to things in the future Made for ZWT6 – NA*ME Region and the Queens of Quisine!, I expected this to be the hottest of the three spice mixes I tried today It wasn’t It was quite spicey but still very flavorful I rubbed it on chicken that was then grilled outside Made for ZWT #6 – 2010
