Organic African Lentil Seasoning Blend

Product description

Biova Organic African Lentil Seasoning is a finely balanced spice blend for lentils, beans and chickpeas with a warm, spicy and fruity character. The intensely coloured mix combines African-inspired flavours with a subtle sweetness.

Carefully selected organic ingredients such as cumin, paprika, tomato and root vegetables are gently processed and evenly blended at Biova. The result is an easy-to-dose seasoning mix with no added flavour enhancers or anti-caking agents.

Use this lentil seasoning to lift soups, dal, stews or lentil salads and quickly add depth to any pulse-based dish. It also gives vegan and vegetarian pan dishes a harmonious seasoning with a hint of African flair.

Origin

This seasoning blend is produced in Germany to Biova quality standards. The organic raw spices used come from certified organic farming in selected growing regions.

Cultivation / production / harvest

Cumin, paprika, coriander and chilli are organically grown in their countries of origin, then gently dried and ground. In Germany, Biova precisely blends all components and packs them in a way that protects their aroma.

Special features

This blend is defined by its combination of savoury spice, fruitiness and fine sweetness in an African-inspired recipe. Beetroot, date and orange peel give the Biova mix depth and a distinctive reddish colour.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike many conventional lentil seasonings, this organic blend is based on ecological raw materials. Production in Germany ensures a consistent recipe, short quality control routes and allows Biova to avoid additives.

Taste & aroma

On the nose, the seasoning is warm and spicy with notes of cumin, paprika and tomato plus a hint of herbal freshness. On the palate, fruity accents of beetroot and orange, subtle date sweetness and a medium, pleasantly piquant heat come to the fore.
