Villa Jerada Shawarma Spice Blend

50 Gram Jar - Seattle, WA

Shawarma is old. So old no one really knows when and where it started. Variations abound today, perhaps spread around by the Turkish-Ottoman empire. 

The combination of lamb and veal are cooked using a spit grilling technique, and sliced off as needed.

Villa Jerada has created the "ambience" of the dish Shawarma thru a collection of spices. Use on grilled meats, chickpeas, or mix in with yogurt. We tested it with oil and popped popcorn. It was divine!



ingredients: Paprika, onion powder, nutmeg, cumin, bay leaf, cardamom, garlic powder, ginger, coriander, cayenne, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, turmuric, sumac, black and white pepper

red sauce kicker
This is a classic iteration of shawarma. I'm not a meat eater, so I use it to give seafood red sauces a kick, such as shrimp gambas. It is also a tasty addition to a baked fish - smeared on the bottom of a generously buttered baking dish, then a bunch of fresh herbs like dill or cilantro are generously placed in, and then a skin side down fish filet, like tuna or salmon. Bake at 400 F. The shawarma and the butter and the fresh herbs make a nice sauce simply poured over the plated fish. This dish has that touch of eastern Mediterranean seafood that I really enjoy.

Exceptional flavor
This blend is so good—I use it on chicken to satisfy my shawarma cravings from living abroad. Discovered it also goes well with lamb and beef roast too! I make a thick marinade with garlic/ginger paste, vinegar of choice, honey, and any other additional spices for different cuts/types of meat to slow cook—perfection.
