How to Use
Advieh Berenj, meaning “spiced rice” in Persian, is a fragrant, all-natural seasoning blend designed to elevate rice dishes with ease. Traditionally used in Persian cuisine, this warming mix of cinnamon, rose petals, and aromatic spices adds depth, balance and a touch of floral complexity to plain white rice or pilafs. Add 1–2 teaspoons while cooking, steaming, or just before serving to transform everyday grains into something memorable. Ideal for the whole family, including children, Advieh Berenj goes beyond rice. Try it in stuffed vegetables, stirred into cauliflower rice, lentils, or couscous. It also works beautifully when blended with yogurt for a subtly spiced chicken marinade. A versatile addition to your pantry, this spice blend delivers authentic Persian flavour with every spoonful.
