<p>Ethiopian cuisine features an important ingredient known as awaze spice. This special blend consists of cayenne and paprika, ginger, garlic, and various traditional Ethiopian spices like besobilla, korerima, timiz, and caraway seed. Awaze spice is an incredibly versatile ingredient, adding both heat and exquisite flavor to any dish. It has a smoky and intricate taste that balances perfectly with any recipe. Making this spice mix is easy, and I have included the recipe for mild, hot, and extra hot versions in this guide.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Awaze Spice transforms any meal into a culinary experience.</strong></h2>



<p>This is a recipe passed down from my mom, Emaye. Her version includes mustard seeds (senafich), which I find to be a perfect addition. However, I also like to tweak the ingredients depending on what it&#8217;s being served with. If I&#8217;m serving it with Derek Tibs or Tire Siga, I definitely recommend adding the senafich (or wasabi) and lemon (or wine) to enhance the flavor. But when serving it with Shiro or Gomen, I prefer to keep it simple. For burgers, I use it as a spread with mayonnaise. And let me tell you, it&#8217;s a game-changer! Additionally, this marinade is perfect for meats and vegetables, and I love adding it to stews, soups, and curries to make them even more delicious.</p>

So, if you&#8217;re one of those people who can handle the heat, get ready to learn about all the benefits of spicy food. Trust me, it&#8217;s going to be worth it!</p>
