Busy days don’t leave much room for complicated recipes, but that doesn’t mean you should sacrifice the flavours you love. With Hooyos House, every dish can be transformed with just a sprinkle. Imagine sitting down at the dinner table, serving food that’s bursting with the same rich spices that fill Somali kitchens, but with all the convenience you need to fit your fast-paced life.
Flavours Rooted in Tradition
At Hooyos House, we know that the foundation of any great meal is in the spices. Our Seasoning is designed to bring out the best in every dish you make, whether it’s a quick suqaar or a big family feast. The heart of this blend is xawaash, a staple in Somali kitchens for generations. We’ve taken the essence of the xawaash spice blend and enhanced it to fit today’s fast-paced lifestyle.
When we developed our All Purpose Seasoning, our goal was to keep the authenticity of xawaash intact, while making it easier for busy home cooks to use. We wanted something that would instantly remind you of the flavours you grew up with—the warmth, the depth, and the complexity of Somali cooking, without requiring a full spice rack or hours of preparation.
Each jar contains the perfect balance of warming spices that remind you of home, with hints of sweet paprika, the freshness of parsley, and the aromatic depth of rosemary. It’s your kitchen’s secret weapon—simple to use, packed with flavour, and always natural.
At the core of Hooyos House All Purpose Seasoning is xawaash, the traditional Somali spice blend that has been used in homes for centuries. From stews to grilled meats, it is what brings life and warmth to Somali dishes. We’ve taken this age-old blend and perfected it for modern kitchens, adding a touch of sweet paprika, the brightness of parsley, and a hint of black pepper for a perfectly balanced flavour profile that’s rich, earthy, and full of depth. Whether you’re making traditional Somali dishes or using it in your everyday cooking, this seasoning brings warmth and complexity to every bite.
