Product Description

Ottolenghi Hawaij Paste 170g transforms the traditional Yemeni spice blend into a convenient cooking paste that makes adding bold, aromatic flavour effortless. Featuring ginger, cardamom, turmeric, cloves and black pepper, this carefully balanced blend delivers warming spice and earthy complexity that enhances a wide range of dishes.

Traditionally, hawaij requires measuring and grinding multiple spices, but this ready-made paste allows you to enjoy its distinctive flavour straight from the jar. Combined with extra virgin olive oil, caramelised onions, garlic and lemon juice, it creates a rich, versatile paste that can be used as a marinade, cooking base or flavour enhancer.

Stir a spoonful into soups and stews for instant depth, rub it onto chicken, lamb or vegetables before roasting, or mix it with olive oil for a simple marinade. The warming spices complement root vegetables, grains and legumes particularly well, making it a valuable ingredient for both everyday meals and more adventurous cooking. Inspired by Ottolenghi’s globally influenced approach to flavour, this paste is an easy way to bring Middle Eastern-inspired character to your kitchen.
