Morocco’s Golden Crown of Spice

around the world

Born in the spice souks of Morocco, Ras el Hanout is the pride of every spice merchant. There’s no fixed recipe — each blend tells the story of its maker, often containing more than twenty different spices, herbs, and dried flowers.

In Moroccan culture, it symbolises pride, craftsmanship, and generosity — a reflection of the warmth shown to guests at every meal. It appears in iconic dishes like tagines, couscous royal, and pastilla (sweet-savory pastry layered with spice, chicken, and almonds). You’ll find it everywhere from Berber mountain homes to bustling Casablanca kitchens — a living thread between tradition and creativity.

When spice meets sweetness, Morocco’s magic truly begins.

If I could bottle the warmth of a Moroccan sunset, it would smell exactly like Ras el Hanout. This is not just a spice blend — it’s a culinary compass that points straight to comfort and adventure at the same time. The name literally means “head of the shop” — the very best a spice merchant can offer.

In my kitchen, I dust it over root vegetables before roasting, stir it through couscous with a drizzle of honey, or rub it into lamb shoulder before a long, slow bake. The scent alone fills the room with mystery — cinnamon, cardamom, rose petals, coriander… every cook’s dream. And here’s a pro tip: add a pinch to melted butter for brushing over warm flatbreads. It’s an instant trip to Marrakech without leaving your oven.
