Nigerian Suya Yaji Spice

Yaji Spice (pronounced “yaa-gee”)—also known as suya yaji or suya seasoning—is a flavor-packed blend that’s nutty, spicy, and smoky, with delightful undertones of onion and garlic. This unique spice blend is traditionally used as a dry rub for beef, especially for grilling. Suya (pronounced "sue-ya"), a beloved beef kabob, is one of Nigeria's most popular street foods. The seasoning that gives suya its distinctive taste can be called yaji or suya. Hand-blended with ground peanuts, sea salt, paprika, cayenne, garlic, ginger, and onion, Yaji Spice brings a bold and authentic taste to your kitchen. In Nigeria, suya stands are as common as Starbucks shops in the United States. Suya is a cheap, accessible, and unifying food that has been part of Nigerian culture for decades. While different regions claim to have the original recipe, it's believed that suya originated in the northern part of the country.
