Maggi Nokossis a specialty seafood-flavored seasoning under Nestlé’s Maggi brand, formulated to enhance dishes with shrimp or crayfish umami. Widely popular in West African cooking (especially Senegal and Nigeria), it’s available in cube or tablet forms and is iodized for nutritional benefit.
Quite unlike standard stock cubes, Nokoss is addedafteringredients are ready—its role is to bring aroma, flavor depth, and finishing seasoning to dishes. It’s particularly suited to seafood soups, rice dishes like jollof or jollof-style seafood, and sauces, giving them a savory “seafood kiss”.
