Arabic Seven Spice
"Baharat", while literally meaning “spice” in Arabic, refers specifically to a traditional seven-spice blend widely used in Lebanese, Syrian, and Palestinian cuisine, particularly in meat and rice dishes. This warm and aromatic mix typically includes cinnamon, black pepper, allspice, cumin, coriander, cloves, and nutmeg. It is not spicy in terms of heat, but delivers a rich, earthy, and deeply flavorful profile.
The Arabic 7 Spice Blend formulated by Tuna Spice is tailored especially for ground meat kebabs and koftas, rice casseroles, stuffed vegetables, chicken dishes, and lentil pilafs. By combining authentic Middle Eastern recipes with modern production standards, it serves a wide range of applications for HORECA, retail, and frozen food manufacturers.
