31 Steenbergs Products Become Halal Certified

Following a detailed certification and audit process that's taken several months, we're pleased that Steenbergs now has 31 products certified as conforming to Halal requirements in accordance with Islamic law.  We've been certified by Halal Certification Europe, who are approved by JAKIM (Malaysia) and MUIS (Singapore) as well as other Halal authorities.

The products that conform to Halal are all mixes prepared at Steenbergs and include: Baharat, Garam Masala, Madras Curry Powder, Chana Masala, Harissa, Lebanese 7 Spice and Tagine Spice Mix, as well as Steenbergs English Breakfast Tea and Earl Grey Tea.  For a full list, please contact sales@steenbergs.co.uk.

Individual spices and herbs are not certified as Halal, because they are not processed at Steenbergs' factories, but at the ingredients' source.  Over time, we hope to be able to get some of the original suppliers certified as Halal, but that'll take time.
