If you're looking to add some global flavor to your favorite dishes, you might want to try Trader Joe's new Ajika Georgian Seasoning Blend.
In the western regions of the Republic of Georgia, ajika is a pantry staple. The seasoning is traditionally prepared in paste form and consists of ground chili peppers, garlic, walnuts, and various other savory spices. In Georgia, the seasoning is used on everything from beef to bread, and now customers in the U.S. can easily incorporate it into their favorite dishes as well. Trader Joe's new Ajika Georgian Seasoning Blend offers "a pleasant hit of heat, a savory touch of garlic, and an alluring mix of aromatic seasonings like coriander, fenugreek, and marigold petals." As the brand recommends, the spice mix is best enjoyed on grilled meats, roasted potatoes, eggs, and more.
