Mekelesha | Spice Blend
Mekelesha – The Finishing Touch
መከለሻ
A special handcrafted recipe handed down from generation to generation. Stirred into a wot in its final minutes of cooking — lighter and more aromatic than berbere — mekelesha lifts the whole dish at the end without muddying what's been built. Where berbere creates the body, mekelesha brings the finish.
How to use it
Add in the last 5–10 minutes of cooking any wot. It's a finisher, not a foundation.
