Ingredients and Formulation
The powder combines the classic spices required for Jollof with fortification and flavour boosters:
Spices & Herbs: Contains a rich blend of spices like Thyme, Bay Leaf, Curry Powder, Paprika, Onion, and Garlic, which are key to Jollof’s flavour profile.
Colouring: Ingredients like caramelised sugar and roccou extract are included to enhance the signature reddish-orange hue of the rice.

Flavour Enhancers: Includes MSG and other sodium salts (guanylate, inosinate) to boost the savoury (umami) profile.
Usage Guidance
The 100\text{g} format allows the cook to scoop the required amount. Maggi recommends adding their Signature Jollof seasoning midway through the cooking process and cautioning against adding extra salt, as the powder is already salted.
