Suya Spice

Suya Spice is a West African dry spice mix (often called Yaji) traditionally used to coat and season skewered grilled meats, giving a nutty, smoky and spicy finish. It is typically used in small amounts because it contains 6g of salt per 100g. While mostly a flavoring rather than a bulk ingredient, the blend contributes plant protein and fiber and provides minerals like manganese and vitamin A from some of its components, so it can add both taste and micronutrients when used modestly.
