The spice blend is incredible! I’ve been particularly favoring the shami spice for roast vegetables and sauces. The aleppo salt is a fantastic flavor to add sweet heat to a dish and bring out more nuanced flavors. I always have a great experience with all of the Shawarmaji products I’ve purchased.
Wonderful experience and high quality products. After the delivery of 20 spice sets (hand delivered to us - AMAZING), I actually visited the Oakland location and bought more gifts. 5 more spice sets, 12 jars of Toum, which an employee jumped into action and made fresh for us while I waited, and a $100 gift card for an employees birthday. Your employees are kind and helpful. We are all fans of Shawarmaji and your delicious offerings. We know our clients are going to love their gifts.
These are fantastic spice blends I use for marinating, seasoning and cooking!
I’ve kept the spices in its original box, I love the packaging. One can tell Chef Mohammad & co. has put love and care into their work.
I really really love them. The taste is great. Your falafel spices is the best. I never tasted one like. Beautiful packaging.. fast delivery.. taste is amazing. Loved the recipe cards that came with my first order. Except I was disappointed I didn’t get in the second one. Only because the order was for a friend of mine. ( thank you for great product and great service). I have won me as a customer.
we source all of our spices from jordan and india. we’re committed to using spices that are grown in their native lands to best preserve their true flavors that are dependent on the soil and climates they’re grown in.
how are your spices processed?
we get our spices raw and whole. we then roast, grind, and mix them in-house, so you don’t get a spice mix that has been sitting in a warehouse and then on a shelf for months before it gets to your kitchen.
how do i store spices?
our spice jars are pretty airtight and meant for retaining freshness. we would recommend keeping the jars in your pantry and away from direct sunlight to preserve shelf life.
how long are spices good for?
when spices “expire”, thankfully, there isn’t a health risk if they’re consumed. spices expiring means they have lost their flavor and potency. it’s said that spice blends can retain most of their flavor for up to 2 years, but for maximum freshness and potency, we recommend consuming our ground spices within six months.
