Welcome to the Flavor of Morocco: A Journey Through Tradition, Spice and Soul !

Welcome to Minted Tea, a place where Moroccan recipes come to life — one dish, one spice, one story at a time. Whether you’re here out of curiosity, nostalgia, or a love for good food, you’re in for a flavorful journey through one of the world’s most vibrant cuisines.

The Soul of Moroccan Cooking:

Moroccan cuisine is a true melting pot of cultures — Arab, Berber, Mediterranean, Andalusian, and French influences all meet in one tagine. What makes it so special is not just the taste, but the ritual of cooking and sharing. In Morocco, every dish is a moment — a gathering, a story, a memory.

Spices: The Language of Flavor

From cumin to cinnamon, paprika to ginger, Moroccan food speaks in the language of spice. The famous ras el hanout, a mix of up to 30 spices, is like a secret whisper passed from kitchen to kitchen. Each region, and often each family, has its own version.

The Iconic Dishes:

• Tagine: A slow-cooked stew made in a clay pot, flavored with saffron, preserved lemon, and olives.

• Couscous: Traditionally served on Fridays, this fine semolina dish is steamed and topped with vegetables and meat.

• Harira: A hearty tomato and lentil soup often served during Ramadan.

• Rfissa: A comforting dish of shredded msemen with lentils and chicken, spiced with fenugreek.

• Pastilla: A savory-sweet pie with layers of pigeon or chicken, almonds, and cinnamon wrapped in warqa pastry.

More Than Food — A Way of Life:

In Morocco, cooking is a gesture of love. Whether you’re sipping mint tea in the afternoon or breaking bread with family, every meal is about connection. Recipes are passed down through generations, and each one holds a piece of history.
