Product DescriptionZamouri Spices - Ras el Hanout - as featured in O, The Oprah Magazine.
This is NOT a simple version of Ras el Hanout found in cookbooks; this is AUTHENTIC!
In Moroccan language, Ras el Hanout literally means head of the store or the best spice mixture a merchant has to offer.

Ras el Hanout is a spice blend that Zamouri Spices is proud to present as its best and most unique mix that any adventurous palate would love to experience. The secret of this mix and its recipe is passed down through generations. Native to Morocco, every spice vendor in the region has its own recipe. Zamouri's, too, has its original blend used only in the remote region of Zamour (North Africa Atlas Mountains) for a thousand years.

Rating: - Ras El Hanout - more curry-like than I'd anticipated
I love Morrocan chicken and a good Ras El Hanout spice is essential for this dish. I was suprised at this blend, it differs significantly in the balance of flavors from the one I was originally introduced to. This is a much more savory - curry-like spice than the more sweetly cinammon-heavy original I started with. I'll have to try others to understand better if there is a 'standard' for Ras El Hanout!
Rating: - The real deal
Most Ras al Hanout contains only a few ingredients. This one, with over 20, is the real stuff one might get in a Maghreb spice shop as the "top of the line" (literally 'top of the shop') secret family mixture.
Rating: - This is the real deal
Be careful! After trying this wonderful blend of spices, with great complexity of flavor, that they say is made with 35 ingredients, I found ras el hanout in my local grocery store. When I tried it alongside this one, there was no comparison. Then I checked the label--the local one had only 8 ingredients! It went into the trash and another order was placed to Zamouri.
Ras el hanout can be used in a number of Moroccan dishes that are fabulous, although they tend to be complex to prepare ... Read More
Rating: - My favorite spice!
This is great for Couscous sauce and other red sauces! I would recommend making it at home then buying it, but if you don't know how or don't have the opportunity to do it this is the brand to buy!
