Whether you're spending a culinary night in Tunisia or on the road to Morocco, this set of traditional spice blends created by the masters of the trade is a must-have for authentic flavor: southern Indian Golden Vadouvan, blazing-hot Tunisian Harissa, complex North African Ras el Hanout, and citrusy Japanese Shichimi Togarashi. 

Here's what you get:

  • Vadouvan Golden (a intense and unique blend of aromatics and curry spices from Southerin India)
  • Harissa Mix (an extremely hot condiment from Tunisia)
  • Ras el Hanout (a complex, traditional Arabic blend that is comprised of 20 spices and herbs from North Africa)
  • Shichimi Togarashi (a Japanese chili blend with an orange peel aroma)

Get Into the Grind

Cooks in North Africa and India count their ability to blend spices as an essential culinary skill, as well as a signature to their dishes. Create your own signature with these four impeccable spice blends, chosen by Le Sanctuaire from See Smell Taste, a company devoted to the study and perfection of spice harvesting. The aromatic-and-curry-spice Vadouvan Golden Mix imbues something as simple as a shrimp and orange sauté with a surprising complexity of flavor. The fiery Harissa blend can elevate a vegetable couscous (or a grilled fish). Some say that the more than 20 spices in North African Ras el Hanout create an aphrodisiac, not to mention that it also enlivens lamb or a Moroccan chickpea side dish. Shichimi Togarashi translates as "seven flavors chili," which, along with lemon, orange peel, myrtle, and other spices gives a spicy glazed Japanese eggplant a warm, nutty touch.
