Our Grains of Paradise are grown by a cooperative of farmers, primarily women, in a biosphere in southwestern Ethiopia. These complex, aromatic seeds are beloved across Africa. Also known as melegueta pepper, theyre related to cardamom and ginger, and theyre harvested from pods on a trumpet-shaped purple flower. Sprinkle into stews and sauces for flavor reminiscent of black pepper but beautifully unique.
