This earthy-sweet seasoning blend is common in Ethiopian cooking. Paprika and allspice bring in smoky, savory notes while cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves punch up the sweet notes. Nutmeg, fenugreek, and turmeric add earthy flavors, and cayenne rounds everything out with a kick of heat. Make a big batch of this blend to keep in your cupboard for flavoring stews, amping up roasted veggies, or stirring into homemade hummus to give it some extra pizzazz.

What kind of paprika, please? Smoked? Sweet?
Hi Willa, Use sweet paprika or paprika that's just labelled as "paprika. Sweet paprika is the most common variety and is often simply labelled "paprika."
