Our organic non-GMO Mitmita (Mtmita) comes directly from Ethiopia and is a spicy seasoning mix containing ground African bird's eye chili peppers, Ethiopian cardamom (korerima), cloves, and salt, cinnamon, cumin, and ginger.
Mitmita is traditionally used in Ethiopia and Eritrea both as a rubbing spice to season ingredients before cooking, and as a condiment to add both heat and flavor to dishes.
