Frontier Organic Seasoning, Berbere, 2.3 Ounce

Look up a recipe for Doro Wat at Chili Pepper Madness and use this - incredible

This seasoning smells, tastes and looks great. I love North African and Ethiopian seasonings, they're great on basically anything! And you only need a little bit-- it goes a long way.

This is awesome seasoning. Smokey flavor. Great on meats, eggs, just about everything.

Frontier Organic Berbere Seasoning is incredibly fragrant and packs a punch of bold, complex flavor. Just a small sprinkle transforms dishes with its warm, spicy depth. It’s potent, so a little goes a long way. It's perfect for stews, meats, or anything that needs a flavor boost. A must have for adventurous cooks.

My partner and I have grown a fondness for Ethiopian style cuisine, which often requires Berbere. Ever since our local Ethiopian joint went out of business, we've been craving authentic, Ethiopian style dishes. Berbere is an interesting flavor, and it's very difficult to get just right. This does a pretty good job of getting what you're looking for in Ethiopian cooking, and it has a berbere taste. It's got a pinch too much cayenne and it's a little too sweet, but it gets the job done a lot better than most supermarket brand berbere spice blends will. If I were Frontier I'd get rid of some of the cayenne and pump up some of the other ingredients. Seems it's trying to sub for a generic Ethiopian taste by adding that much cayenne. What you want if you want spicy is a spice called Mitmita, which is the go to ingredient for Kitfo. It's also the spice powder you'll have on your dishes at many restaurants. You can even find a bit of it in your injera if they're doing it right. It also uses fresh ground chiles, which is a lot hotter than cayenne! ...Obviously, this isn't authentic berbere, and it has a ton of salt... BUT. If what you're looking for is a nice Ethiopian base, this does it hands down and is very easy to get your hands on. It tastes kind of like berbere, which is more than I can say for most supermarket brand spice blends.

Delicious! So flavorful!!

Has so many spices in it that are good for you. Organic is it- no chemicals. Get it. Put it on fish, eggs, potatoes, rice - yum & your healing your body with the spices. I researched about 5 popular ones & this had the most good ingredients.

This is a very strong spice, a little goes a long way.

One of the better Berbere spice blends I have tried. There's a good balanced flavour with a bit of heat that didn't require any further additions of salt for my tastes.
