Description
A spice blend is chosen by its ingredients as well as its name. Use it for its stated culinary purpose, add it gradually and check the ingredients if you have an allergy. Recipe suggestions are serving ideas, not a statement of the blend’s manufacturing recipe.
A blend for savoury cooking
Ras el-hanout is a Moroccan spice blend. Use it to season tagines, vegetables and meat fillings; it can be worked into the main ingredients or the aromatic base of a dish.
Which dishes can I make?
Tagines and simmered dishes
Stir a little into softened onions and other aromatics before adding the main ingredients and cooking liquid. Keep the heat moderate and stir so the spices do not catch on the pan.
Roasted vegetables
Mix the seasoning into the oil or coating for the recipe, then toss with the vegetables before roasting. Spread the coating evenly rather than leaving clumps of spice on the tray.
Lamb or vegetable fillings
Mix the blend through a raw filling before cooking, or stir it into softened aromatics before adding the filling ingredients. As one recipe example, a leek and lamb batbout filling uses 3 teaspoons with 500 g minced lamb and 300 g leeks. This is a proportion for that complete recipe; start with less when adapting it to another dish.
When to adjust the seasoning
Begin with a small amount and mix thoroughly. Taste a cooked sauce or filling before adding more; do not taste raw meat to judge its seasoning.
Storage
Keep the pack tightly closed in a dry cupboard, away from hob heat, steam and direct light. Use a clean, dry spoon.
How to use
For a stew or filling, stir the blend into the softened onions and other aromatics before adding the main ingredients and cooking liquid. Keep the heat moderate and stir so that the spices do not catch on the pan. For roasting, mix the seasoning with the oil or other coating before tossing with the vegetables.
Storage
Store in the original, closed food packaging, in a dry place away from heat, light and strong odours. Follow the date and any after-opening instructions on the pack.
Your questions
Is every blend with this name the same?
No. One name can cover different recipes. Consult the ingredient and allergen information for the actual batch supplied.
How much should I use?
First check the ingredients and allergens on the pack. Add the blend gradually to your recipe and taste before adding more. Do not infer its ingredient list from its name alone.
What should I check if I have allergies?
Read the full ingredient list of the product supplied. A list of highlighted ingredients is not a substitute for that list. Seek advice before use if unsure.
How long can I keep it after opening?
Follow the date or period-after-opening symbol on the pack. One shelf life cannot be applied to every reference. Keep the batch number.
