What Makes It Uncommon

You don’t need restaurant reservations or a passport for authentic flavors and aromas from Ethiopia. Eleni Woldeyes shares dishes and recipes from her home country through these easy, flavorful meal kits.

  • Ethiopian simmer sauce, also called Kulet, serves as the base for lentil- and protein-packed stews. Eleni includes two:
    • The Mild version is packed with onions, tomato puree, olive oil, red chili peppers, garlic, and more.
    • The Turmeric flavor features turmeric, garlic, ginger, onions, olive oil, and more.
  • A bag each of Red Split Pea Lentils and Yellow Split Peas offers plant-based protein for your stew.
  • To make, simply mix one jar of sauce with lentils or other protein, then simmer until cooked through. Instructions included.
  • Made in Oregon.

    Eleni Woldeyes

    Busy mom of two Eleni Woldeyes loved cooking the dishes she grew up eating in Ethiopia, but making simmer sauces from scratch was time-consuming. As an accountant living in Oregon, she was unable to find the flavorful, aromatic stew bases at local grocers. With convenience in mind, Eleni set out to bring authentic, all-natural Ethiopian sauces to people everywhere. Today, she’s expanded from the farmers' market to store shelves across the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

    A very healthy, quick, and delicious meal

    First of all, their Customer Service was great. I had a small issue with my order, and they immediately rectified it. I tried the Mild Kulet Sauce, which is low in sodium and carbs (a big plus with me), and all I had to do was put the sauce, some water, and the provided lentils into a saucepan for 30 minutes. The jar said I could have added protein or vegetables. It was delicious! My husband likes things spicier than I do, so he used some of the provided spice powder. I just added a little sour cream. I can see this being a staple on my pantry shelves. One of my favorite Uncommon Goods purchases ever!

    A wonderful plant-based meal

    I made the mild sauce with red lentils last night. It was so easy to fix and tasted wonderful! This could be my favorite go-to meal for busy nights. My husband added the included red Berbere powder to make his spicier; I liked it without. Customer service from this vendor was exceptional. I will definitely order again.
