Chermoula Seasoning 50g
Chermoula is the vibrant, soulful marinade and sauce that brings Moroccan fish tagines, grilled meats, and vegetable dishes to life. Unlike dry spice blends, our Chermoula Seasoning includes a beautiful mix of dried herbs, spices, and citrus, capturing the essence of this classic condiment in an easy-to-use form. Simply mix with oil and lemon juice to create an instant, authentic marinade.
A Symphony of Fresh, Zesty Flavours
We carefully balance robust herbs with warm spices and a tangy citrus kick. This blend features fresh-tasting cilantro and parsley, earthy cumin, smoky paprika, and the bright notes of lemon and garlic. The result is a complex, unforgettable flavour profile that is herbaceous, slightly spicy, and utterly delicious.
