Murch-e Masala Dar was created for cooks who want flavor that feels alive! This Afghan spice blend is aromatic, balanced, and gently spicy without overwhelming heat.
Meaning “flavorful spiced chili” in Dari, this small-batch Afghan seasoning brings together Aleppo chili warmth, bright sumac, fragrant coriander, and fresh herbal notes from mint and dill. The result is a blend that adds depth and character while staying approachable and versatile.
Each ingredient is chosen to play a specific role: chili for subtle heat, citrus and herbs for lift, and warm spices to round everything out. Nothing dominates. The blend is designed to enhance food, not mask it.
Unlike aggressive chili blends, Murch-e Masala Dar delivers layered flavor with restraint. It’s expressive without being loud. Ideal for everyday cooking when you want your dishes to taste thoughtful, balanced, and deeply satisfying.
This is a seasoning for cooks who appreciate nuance, aroma, and a touch of heat that keeps you coming back for another bite.
