Our ingredients

Three jars, each built on a Nigerian staple. This is where the flavours come from.

A box of fresh red peppers

Tatashe

Peppers

Yoruba
tatashe, rodo
Hausa
tattase, attarugu

In Nigerian cooking, pepper is the base, not the garnish. Sweet tatashe and fiery rodo, the Scotch bonnet, are blended together to start a pot of stew.

Our Tatashe keeps that pairing: sweet red pepper first, Scotch bonnet behind it.

Deep red hibiscus calyces

Zobo

Hibiscus

Hausa
zoborodo, zobo
Yoruba
isapa

Zobo is a Nigerian drink made from dried hibiscus: deep red, tart and served cold. Most of the hibiscus is grown in the north and picked by hand.

Our Zobo turns the drink into a preserve, with charred pineapple.

Ground suya spice in a wooden mortar

Yaji Honey

Suya spice

Hausa
yaji, suya

Yaji is the spice behind suya, the grilled skewers sold from street grills across Nigeria, often after dark. It is built on chilli, ginger and groundnuts, often in the form of kuli kuli, a crisp groundnut cake.

Yaji Honey brings that warmth to wildflower honey. Contains peanuts.
