\n\tBetween spices and Moroccan cuisine, it's much more than a love story. Here is a fusional couple who spread happiness all around him.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThose of you who have already come to Morocco will certainly remember these magnificent multicoloured stalls that brighten up our streets and squares. As beautiful to look at as good to smell, they contribute to the identity of the city and diffuse in the air that recognizable smell that makes the identity of Marrakech. Here indeed, spices are everywhere. Not only for the happiness of tourists. But because Moroccan cuisine has made it its first ingredient.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMorocco without spices would not really be Morocco.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tRecognized as one of the best in the world, Moroccan cuisine is particularly rich in flavours, colours and aromas. This variety of flavours and this explosion, both visual and gustatory, is first and foremost due to the spices. The secret of this ancestral gastronomic art lies in the skilful dosage of an often secret mixture of many spices. A secret that is jealously transmitted from mother to daughter…  \n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a recipe, the list and proportions of spices used are at least as important as the basic ingredients. Because they are the ones who will give the dish its oriental character and will form this picture as fragrant as it is colourful, which makes the singularity of local gastronomy.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThen all that remains is to add the often slow and suffocating cooking method and the very artistic way of presenting the finished dish and then serving it generously, and you will understand why so many visitors leave Morocco bringing with them the unforgettable memory of this cuisine of happiness.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe safran "Saafrane beldi<\/em>"<\/strong> :A spice worth its weight in gold! Soft, with enveloping, delicate and very fragrant aromas. It exists in two forms; in powder or filament.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"safran-marocain\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe cinnamon or "Karfa<\/em>"<\/strong> : It reveals sweet and warm notes, a little bewitching\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"cannelle\n<\/p>\n

\n\tPaprika or "Felfla hloua<\/em>"<\/strong> : Paprika is appreciated for its colour but also for its taste, sweet, slightly bitter, subtly spicy and very aromatic.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"paprika\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCumin or "kamoun" : <\/em><\/strong>As seeds or powders, cumin is used to enhance the taste of dishes prepared in the kitchen such as tajines and couscous. \n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"cumin\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCloves or "Kronfel" :<\/strong> They are perfect for cooking fish and rice, and perfectly enhance the taste of the other spices associated with them.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCoriander or "Arab parsley" : <\/strong> widely used in Moroccan soups and soups, ground meat balls and tagines.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"coriande,-\u00e9pices-marocaine\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGinger or "Chkinjbi<\/em>r " : <\/strong>We love its warm, fresh and sweet aroma. When it is fresh, it is much more tonic.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"gingembre,-\u00e9pices-marocaine\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBlack pepper or  "Ibzar" :  <\/em><\/strong>Grey, white, black, its scent differs slightly according to its color which depends on the tree that produces it and\/or the maturity of the seed.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"POIVRE-NOIRE,-\u00e9pices-marocaine\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGarlic or "Touma" : <\/em><\/strong>It enhances the taste of the dishes and is said to promote digestion.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"l'ail,-\u00e9pices-marocaine\"\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tTurmeric or "Kharkoum" : <\/em><\/strong>Very soft and fresh, it is used as a natural colouring agent in many dishes.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\"Curcuma,-\u00e9pices-marocaine\"\n<\/p>\n
