Chef's Note: If you like spicy and hot food, feel free to add more cayenne
powder to this blend or simply add more cayenne powder or hot sauce to the
dish.
Although not the same, in a pinch you can substitute cayenne powder for
Berbere.
AuthorNote: Berbere, a spice blend, is a key ingredient in Ethiopian
cooking. Although commercial blends exist, most of them are very hot and
use cayenne pepper as the main ingredient. To keep control over the heat
of the dish, I prefer blending a milder Berbere myself. With this spice
blend you can safely add 1 teaspoon to any recipe, but if you choose to
substitute a premade blend for convenience, be cautious when adding it.
