Eating Afghan spice rub

Afghans do not have a single spice rub for all kinds of dishes and logically since every food has to taste unique, the spice rub automatically has to come with a unique blend of ingredients. That gives rise to a variety of Afghan spice rubs and different kinds of meats are marinated with different Afghan spice rubs. For example, when you are eating an Afghani chicken dish, you will find out that the cook has used turmeric in the recipe. While this may not be the case always, but most chicken recipes in Afghanistan use turmeric as a part of the chicken spice rub. Lamb and beef on the other hand are not treated with turmeric containing spice rubs. For marinating fishes, the Afghans generally use dried dill as a part of their spice blend.
