Ras el Hanout means “Top of the shop” and implies a mixture of the best spices the seller has to offer. A flavourful but gentle Moroccan spice mix, it plays a similar role in North African cuisine as garam masala does in Indian cuisine. You can use it as a dry rub or mix with a little oil as a paste for meat and fish.
