Ras el hanout, or ‘top of the shop’ as my spice box tells me, is a North African spice blend. Google tells me that it contains up to 27 herbs and spices. I tell myself that I’d much rather buy it pre-made than attempt to make my own. I also tell myself it tastes mighty…

Hello, just back here like a broken record to talk about furikake a little bit more. As you would have identified, I go through food phases weekly. This week, obviously, is furikake week.
