Ras el Hanout

The great Moroccan blend, warm and complex without much heat. Pairs with Chermoula. Best on lamb and chicken. Salt-free — dry-brine the meat separately.

Method

  1. 1.Mix the rub

    Combine and store airtight. Ten spices sounds like a lot, but most are already in a working kitchen.

  2. 2.Apply and cook

    Because this blend is salt-free, dry-brine the meat with kosher salt the day before, then apply the ras el hanout before cooking.
