Organic Baharat Spice Blend

Product description

Organic Baharat from Biova is a Middle Eastern-style spice blend with warm, gently spicy and citrus-fresh notes. Visible nigella seeds add texture and an authentic Near Eastern character.

The well-balanced composition of organically grown spices such as paprika, cumin, nigella, mace and cinnamon creates a complex yet easy-to-use flavour profile. Biova relies on certified organic raw materials and gentle processing so that essential oils and aromas are preserved as much as possible.

In the kitchen, this Baharat spice blend enhances meat dishes, vegetables, pulses and plant-based alternatives alike. Just a few pinches give everyday dishes, dips or hot drinks a finely tuned oriental note.

Origin

The recipe is inspired by traditional Baharat blends from the Middle East and is developed and blended by Biova in Germany. The organic spices come from selected growing regions with suitable climates and verified quality.

Cultivation / production / harvest

The spices used are grown in accordance with organic standards and harvested at optimum ripeness. After drying, they undergo gentle cleaning, precise grinding and accurate blending at the Biova production site before the mix is packed in aroma-protective packaging.

Special features

A characteristic feature is the visible nigella seeds, which add both flavour and a delicate texture to dishes. The combination of warm spices such as cinnamon, cloves and allspice with fresh citrus notes from orange and lemon peel makes the Biova Baharat blend extremely versatile.

Differences in origin and processing

Baharat blends vary significantly by region in terms of heat, sweetness and composition. The Biova version, produced in Germany, focuses on a well-balanced interplay of heat, spice and freshness so that the flavours unfold quickly and evenly in the dish.

Taste & aroma

The spice blend smells warm, spicy and slightly sweet with notes of paprika, cumin, cinnamon and nigella, rounded off by subtle citrus accents. On the palate it delivers mild to moderate heat from chilli, embedded in an aromatic spiciness with hints of cloves, allspice, ginger and cardamom.
