Xanthan Gum Free Ras El Hanout Spice Blend
Warm, aromatic, and deeply complex, this North African spice blend brings together turmeric, ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, and a handful of dried herbs into something that smells absolutely incredible the moment you open the jar. Ras el hanout is one of those blends that transforms a simple chicken thigh, roasted vegetable, or pot of lentils into something that tastes like it took hours of effort. Making it from scratch means you know exactly what's going in ā no mystery fillers, no anti-caking agents, and absolutely no thickeners hiding in the mix. That matters more than people realize, because many commercial spice blends sneak in additives that have no business being there. Here, it's pure spice and herb, stirred together in minutes and stored in an airtight jar for up to three months. The optional cloves and rosemary add an extra layer of depth if you want to lean into the more resinous, woodsy notes of the blend. Keep a jar on hand and you'll find yourself reaching for it constantly.
