Last night I cooked a chicken tagine using a great new product produced an distributed by Jagger in the Adelaide Central Market. I chose the Spice Road Moraccan pack and was totally impressed with the salty preserved lemon flavour and the mild bite from the spices. The packaging is well designed in a carboard sleeve with a re sealable plastic pouch. Perfect for the pantry until you are ready to use. I used the whole pouch in one meal and am keen to try the other spice packs in the range of 10 available. Inside each pouch and also available online are recipe cards on recycled card. The recipes are practical and easy to follow.
Spice Road is a unique range of spice pastes that capture the essence of 10 exciting cuisines from around the world.
