Fun food fact:
This is ras el hanout. Ras el hanout or rass el hanout is a spice mix from North Africa. It plays a similar role in North African cuisine as garam
masala does in Indian cuisine. The name is Arabic for "head of the shop" and implies a mixture of the best spices the seller has to offer. It can have from 10-100 different ingredients in it, but salt, cinnamon, cumin, coriander, allspice, black pepper, and ginger are pretty key. Use it on lamb, chicken and anything else you want to taste amazing.
