Tunisian Baharat Recipes

Baharat is a spice mix used throughout the Arab world to season everything from lentils to meat. There are many variations; this recipe is from my grandmother. It is best to buy all the spices whole and grind them yourself for extra flavor.

From my copy of the book 'Field Guide to Herbs and Spices'. Three ingredients! The food.com site requires measurements for its ingredients. Just remember for this mix use equal parts in any measurement desired. For meat, (grilled) vegetables, marinades/dressings/rubs, etc. Test recipe: First I made: Recipe #17977. In a small bowl I whisked a little bit of olive oil, sprinkle of salt and about 1/2 teaspoon of Tunisian Baharat. This mixture was brushed onto the bread and placed under the broiler for approximately 2 minutes.

• Ingredients

In Arabic, the term "baharat" simply means "spices" and can refer to any number of different blends, each tailored to a specific dish or ingredients. This all-purpose blend, adapted from Freda Nokaly and Doaa Elkady of Spice Tree Organics, reflects the women's Egyptian ancestry, highlighting a combination of musky cumin and floral, citrusy coriander that's been sweetened with an aromatic mix of cinnamon, cardamom and clove, and spiked with black pepper and bay leaf. Unlike some other baharat blends, this version doesn't call for first toasting the spices, giving it a subtle but distinct brightness. Use it in meatballs and pilafs, in marinade and sauces for grilled meats and fish, and in rice dishes.
