Berbere is a highly coveted Ethiopian delicacy that dates back to the Silk Roads. This traditional spice blend is not restricted to just Ethipoian cooking, it is also used widely in other parts of Africa. Berbere may be used as a dry rub or blended with oil and/or water to create a tasty paste. It’s an essential spice blend for traditional Ethiopian dishes.
Common Ways to Consume
Berbere is commonly paired with chicken and other meats, since it soaks so effortlessly into the dishes. But aside from poultry, this rich and spicy blend pairs nicely with vegetable dishes and rice recipes. Our Berbere in particular combines coriander, garlic, and allspice effortlessly to produce a go-to spice blend you simply must try.
Recipe: Crispy Berbere Chicken

Recipe: Berbere Chicken with Ethiopian Lentils
"Berbere is an Ethiopian spice mix, made with a combination of spices grown in the region. It’s similar to curry in that it’s a spice blend, but it is made with different spices. My favorite way to use Berbere is to use it as a rub for chicken, lamb or tofu, and to flavor lentils or stews."
