Kan Kan Kan

Kan kan kan is an unusual spice blend that is popular in Burkina Faso. It consists of peanut powder, chili powder, allspice, and Maggi bouillon cubes. All of the ingredients are crushed and mixed together to create this delicate spice blend which is typically sprinkled over various grilled meat dishes.

The peanut powder imparts a grassy flavor, the chili powder gives the blend some needed heat, while the saltiness comes from bouillon cubes.
