[edit] Questions

[edit] Etymology

Is this information correct? "The Arabic word bararat [بهارات] is an archaic plural to bahar [بهار] “spice” and thus means “the spices” so the bararat blend is just “the (canonical) spice mixture”."

[edit] Used for mutton

Is this correct? "Baharat is mainly used for mutton dishes; most commonly, the mixture is shortly fried in oil or clarified butter to intensify the fragrance." Badagnani (talk) 04:05, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Israel

Is this part of Israeli cuisine, or is it only used by Israeli Arabs? Or is it similar to how chili powder is used in the United States, having come originally from Mexico? Badagnani (talk) 01:33, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
