It all started one sunny Saturday afternoon at Auntie Bisi’s kitchen.
She was hosting a mini get-together, and as usual, the star of the table was a steaming pot of jollof rice. The aroma wafted through the house like a warm embrace. But as she scooped a spoonful into my plate, Eunice blurted out, “Auntie, did you use the Flourish Jollof Mix or just the Seasoning?”
She chuckled and said, “Ah, my dear… people confuse the two all the time.”
And that’s how this post was born because trust us, you don’t want to mix them up if you're serious about nailing your jollof game.
So, What’s the Difference?
Let’s break it down like a party jam at a Nigerian wedding:
Option 1: Jollof Rice Mix (Rice + Seasoning)
What’s Inside?
A complete package — literally. It comes with both rice and our special jollof seasoning already measured and mixed.
Perfect for: Busy folks, students, or jollof lovers who want great taste without the stress.
How to Use:
Just add water and oil. That’s it. In about 20 minutes, you’ve got a ready-to-eat, mildly spiced jollof rice that’s bursting with flavor.
Quick fix. No fuss. Great for meal prep.
Option 2: Jollof Rice Seasoning (Just the Seasoning)
What’s Inside?
A bold, concentrated spice blend that brings your homemade jollof to life. But note — you bring your own rice.
Perfect for: Jollof connoisseurs, home chefs, or anyone who likes to cook from scratch but still wants that authentic flavor.
How to Use:
Add it while cooking your rice for that signature jollof richness, color, and taste. It’s all about flavor enhancement here.
Gives you the control over spice levels, rice texture, and taste.
So... Which One Should You Choose?
Think of it this way:
-
Want a ready-to-go meal that’s fuss-free? Go for the Jollof Rice Mix.
-
Want to build your jollof from scratch but still want that original, unbeatable taste? Choose the Jollof Rice Seasoning.
Either way, you’re getting the magic of Flourish Spices — no compromises.
