🍚 About Our Signature Spice Blend

At Jubba, every entree is seasoned with our in-house xawaash — the soul of Somali cooking. This aromatic blend of cumin, coriander, cardamom, cloves, turmeric and ginger is slow-toasted before each service to unlock its full depth. The result is a warm, layered flavor that is distinctly Somali: complex without being overpowering, fragrant without being perfumed.

All entrees are served with our house-made green sauce — a creamy, mildly spiced condiment that guests consistently rave about. Fair warning: it has a kick, but it's irresistible.
