ianparkin   11 #1 Posted February 11, 2017 Barts spices sell a spice mix called "Berbere" and are advertising it at the mo with a recipe for zigni stew. I tried it last night for a meal for 4 of us All of us like hot spicy food but it was so unpalatable it went in the bin The recipe Called for 2 table spoons of the berbere which did seem a lot  Has anyone else tried it?

FIRETHORN1 Â Â 53 #2 Posted February 18, 2017 I've made chicken zigni stew a few times since a colleague of Eritrean heritage introduced me to it a couple of years ago. Â I'm surprised you found it unpalateably hot & spicy though, because the version I've made has only a mild kick and is more aromatic than hot and spicy. I didn't buy the berbere spice mix though, I made my own from the recipe that my old workmate gave me. I'd be happy to share the recipe with you if you want to try making zigni stew again... a milder version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
