Boffrot, Puff Puff, Beignets or simply doughnuts 🍩 (with no holes) these are a delicious morning treat usually eaten with porridge . Very similar in texture to Korean doughnuts, soft but chewy. We made a caramel drizzle with EssieSpice TamarindOH!® sauce & it took these doughnuts straight to cloud 9 . One of the recipes we will learn from start to finish in our STREET & COMFORT FOOD; West-African Style Cooking Class. Have you signed up?

Or how we at EssieSpice make up the flavor in our dishes when we don’t use additives and harmful MSG, cubes, bouillons? . Would you like to be able to make your own street food which can be found on the streets of Lome, Abuja, Dakar or Accra? Then this might be the class for you . Every participant gets hands-on experience with fresh spices, herbs flown in from Ghana, one-on-one instructions and direction with Owner Essie Bartels, a set of our sauces and a chance to win an apron & pottery set! .

Sometimes you just want Toast. Elevate your toast with EssieSpice TamarindOH!® sauce . Whole wheat batard toasted with a light spread of Ricotta (you can also use Brie, Gorgonzola, a mild Cheddar, Buratta) with a slight drizzle of our TamarindOH!® sauce. This is such a crowd favorite at our demos and a lot of kids prefer it to Jam. #EssieSpice #Jam #TamarindOH #Toast #Yourway
