Need a gift idea for that bride-to-be? Look no further than Brundo’s Matafecha Spice Blend! This all-purpose spice is traditionally presented as a gift from mothers to their newlywed daughters. It’s believed that an effective blend of this spice can help solidify a new bride’s reputation as a "balemoya" among her in-laws.

But for the rest of us, Matafecha is a great flavor enhancer used to complement and magnify the taste, aroma, and flavor of nearly any meat or vegetable dish.

frequently asked questions

Where does the name Brundo come from?

Brundo translates to good food in a messob, the traditional basket that Ethiopian food is often served in.

What products should I buy to start?

If you are just learning to cook Ethiopian food, start with our Ethiopian Essentials. Berbere is the best if you are only getting one thing.

If you’re building out your spice cabinet with really quality spices, shop the seeds and herbs to get single origin, heirloom spices.
