Why cooks start here

Lebanese House Rub pantry blend for the Lebanese table.

In Lebanese kitchens, a good house rub is a pantry staple, elevating everyday dishes with its aromatic blend. This particular mix of spices is a versatile companion to meats and vegetables alike, often sprinkled over grilling fare or stirred into marinades. It's not tied to a specific celebration or season, making it a year-round essential that finds its way into many a meal. The rub's earthy cumin and smoky paprika dominate the palate, while coriander adds a hint of citrusy brightness. Black pepper brings a mild heat, balanced by the fine sea salt. This blend should feel both familiar and invigorating, a quiet nod to the subtle yet impactful flavors of Lebanese cuisine.
