Essone – Maniguette – Jujube from Cameroon, sachets of 25 g and 50 g
Essone (or Maniguette), also known under the names of Guinea Pepper, Grains de Paradis, Cameroon Jujube or even Malaguette, is an ancient and precious spice. Coming from a plant of the Zingiberaceae family. This seed has long been used in Africa for its medicinal, digestive and stimulating properties, but also to enhance traditional dishes.
Its complex aroma combines peppery, lemony and slightly resinous flavors. It brings a subtle depth to sauces, grills, marinades or even broths. It can also be infused into herbal teas with toning properties, particularly to promote digestion or relieve bloating.
In cooking, Essone can be used whole, slightly crushed or reduced to powder depending on use. Its unique taste profile allows you to intensify dishes without excess heat. It is an ideal alternative to classic pepper, with recognized benefits.
This 100% natural product, without additives or preservatives, is available in 25 g and 50 g sachets, to suit both occasional use and family use. Simply store it in a dry, cool place, away from light, to preserve its quality and aroma.
Essone, thanks to its versatility, enriches modern African cuisine while perpetuating ancient culinary traditions. Its use goes beyond gastronomy: it is an integral part of many medicinal and ritual practices in certain cultures.
