Common questions about Dukkah

Is Dukkah ultra-processed?

All listed ingredients are whole or minimally processed spices, seeds, legumes, and seasonings (e.g., chickpeas, seeds, dried garlic/onion, paprika, smoked sea salt, herbs/spices).

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.

How can I check whether other foods are ultra-processed?

Scan any barcode — or photograph the ingredients label — with the free Nomi app for iOS and Android. You'll get an instant ultra-processed verdict with every ingredient explained in plain English.
