Berbere Makes great Kor Wat

Purchased this specifically for an Ethiopian dish "Kor Wat." It turned really good first time. It's got heat but not to the point of causing tearing so follow recipes. I will buy again and definitely from RawSpiceBar. I like the colorful pouches, it's packaged in- easy to find in my plethora of spices. Great price unlike some other specialty shops.

The Berbere is excellent for meat rubs

Excellent berbere spice for meat chicken and I'm sure many other dishes. You can get lots of mileage on this spice blend. One of my go to seasonings from RawSpiceBar.
