Afia - Ground Sumac Spice | Sumac Powder Pantry Spice for Middle Eastern Dishes, Meals and Cuisine | Premium Middle Eastern Spices (2.5oz)

Tastes great on grilled boneless skinless chicken thighs! I bought the variety pack at first, but liked it so much I had to buy a larger bag of this!

Very full of spices but not caliente or hot. Savory but not sweet. Good on vegetables and meats. Smells great. A small amount goes a long way. No salt. Freshly ground.

I absol Love this seasoning and will be ordering it again

Excellent authentic shawarma mix!

Very tasty, I recommend.. I would buy again.

Afia Shawarma Seasoning is a delightful spice blend that I found to be rich in aroma and authentic in flavor. I enjoyed how the cumin and coriander notes stood out, giving my dishes a genuine Middle Eastern flair. I used it mostly on chicken, and it really enhanced the taste without overpowering the meat. I noticed the heat was quite mild, so if you prefer a stronger kick, you might find it a bit subtle. Still, I liked how it allowed the other spices to shine through.I feel the price of $12.99 is somewhat on the higher side for a 2.2 oz container, but considering the quality and careful blend of spices, it seems fair. However, since the quantity is not very large, it could be a bit costly for people who use it frequently. I think the value is reasonable if you are looking for a premium, ready-to-use seasoning that brings authentic flavors without the hassle of mixing your own.One surprising way I used this seasoning was mixing it with yogurt to create a flavorful dip. It worked wonderfully with vegetable sticks and added a nice pop of color and taste. Beyond traditional shawarma, this versatility made me appreciate the product more. I also liked that the paprika gave the dishes a lovely, appetizing hue.On the downside, I found that the fragrance of the spices diminished faster than I expected after opening the container. The aroma was vibrant at first, but toward the end, the flavor seemed to fade a little, which was disappointing. Additionally, I wish the shelf life was longer to provide more confidence when purchasing.Overall, I felt uplifted and inspired to cook more creatively whenever I used this seasoning. It brought a little adventure to my kitchen and made Middle Eastern flavors accessible, even as a beginner. I would rate this product 4 out of 5 stars because while it delivers great flavor and versatility, the price and limited quantity, combined with the fading aroma, slightly lower its overall appeal.

Exactly what was needed for my resipe. Turned out great

Excellent
