This finely textured, golden yellow spice blend is subtly flavored, with delicate notes of cumin, coriander and turmeric. There’s a brightness and savory aroma that leans fresher than what you would get from a store-bought garam masala or other popular Middle Eastern or North African spice blends . This “warming” cinnamon character is notably bright—thanks to the lively clove, which yields a lovely pepperiness. The turmeric, cumin and coriander also make an earthy but vibrant base, keeping the other warming spices solidly in the savory realm.
The name means “mixture” and there are both savory hawaij for dishes like soups and sweet hawaij that’s often used in desserts and coffee. Cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom and cinnamon are all common ingredients in this warming blend.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
This blend makes a lovely base for hearty stews and braises, but it’s also a great dry rub for grilled or broiled meats like our Moroccan Chicken Skewers (https://www.177milkstreet.com/recipes/moroccan-chicken-skewers-cookish). The bright yet hearty aromas work well to balance the rich minerality of beef and lamb, but it’s also wonderful on lighter bases like chicken or even roasted veggies like ourRoasted Whole Cauliflower with Cumin and Turmeric (https://www.177milkstreet.com/recipes/cumin-turmeric-roasted-whole-cauliflower-cookish)—simply use 3 tablespoons instead of the dry spice blend.
