Known as ataare among the Yoruba people, guinea pepper has been used for centuries to spice up native dishes and add power to spiritual work. It comes in the form of brown pods that hold the small dark brown seeds that can be eaten alone or added to ritual works of Ifa. Ataare is a powerful ase and is thought to bring power to words and spiritual energy of Orisa.
Can be purchased as pods or as loose pepper kernels.
