Tree Nut Free Ras El Hanout Spice Blend
Making your own spice blend at home is one of those small kitchen moves that pays off every single time you open the spice cabinet. This warm, aromatic mix layers turmeric, ginger, and Ceylon cinnamon with savory herbs like thyme, oregano, garlic powder, and onion powder for a deeply complex flavor that works beautifully on roasted meats, vegetables, grain bowls, and more. Optional cloves and rosemary let you nudge the profile toward something a little more floral or woodsy depending on your mood. Store-bought versions of this North African-inspired blend can be a real wildcard ā some brands add fillers, unexpected ingredients, or process their spices on shared equipment alongside tree nuts. Mixing it yourself means you know exactly what's in the jar, full stop. Every ingredient here is a straightforward pantry staple, so there's no guesswork and no label-reading anxiety. Just stir everything together, seal it in an airtight jar, and you've got a reliable, fragrant blend ready to go for up to three months.
