Camelēr Spice Co. Mitmita - Rich Ethiopian Spice Blend

Introducing Mitmita - A kaleidoscope of rich, spicy, sweet, and deep flavours that are all-natural, low sodium, and vegan. This spice mix derives from the Ethiopian Empire of Aksum. Featuring the after-heat of Birds Eye chilli peppers, smoky Ethiopian black pepper and undertones of celery salt. Endless culinary adventures - Traditionally, Mitmita is used as a tabletop seasoning. This all-purpose spice mix adds complexity and balance to everything from a ribeye steak to burgers, or prawns and poultry. It is perfect as a steak rub or a barbeque marinade. It can even take a Bloody Mary cocktail to the next level. We recommend adding some fresh chilli if you want to up the alchemy heat even more.

At Cameler Spice Co., we take pride in milling and blending our spices in-house. We do our utmost to use the freshest cooking spices within one year from field to jar. Our main objective is to minimize our supply chain by sourcing ingredients directly from regenerative farms. Indulge in the rich flavours of Mitmita for up to two years, meticulously handwritten on the lid for a personal touch.

Welcome to Ethiopian indulgence of well-balanced, rich and spicy flavours. This heavyweight is our take on a kaleidoscope of heat, sweet and deep flavours.

Origin

A traditional tabletop condiment often sprinkled on dishes, like we would use salt and pepper. If we think of Berbere as the king spice blend of Ethiopia cuisine, then Mitmita is the prince. Mitmita is commonly associated with the beef dish ‘kitfo’ and ‘kurt’ or ‘tere saga’; dishes that resemble steak tartare and Japanese sashimi.

Taste

Spicy, sweet and deep aromatic flavours.

Scent

Malt like toasty notes.

How to use

Bold and complex, it makes a fantastic steak rub for evening supper. Equally great with legume and lentil-based dishes. Add it to casseroles or formulate a new flavour for grilled fish or roast vegetables. You could add it to a delicious tomatoey Shakshuka with some lovely poached eggs and this spice sprinkled over the top. A pinch on a chocolate dessert can also add an enticing experience.
