Our Story
Since 2015, we’ve been bringing the everyday flavors of the Continent to eaters everywhere. Our products started with the tastes of Somalia, the country our founder Hawa Hassan calls home.
As an immigrant, refugee and the second eldest of ten, Hawa moved to Seattle without her family at the age of 7. During her family's 15-year separation, Hawa treasured memories of being her mother’s helper, huddling around the stove, looking after the babies, cooking Canjeero, Bariis and Suugo. When she and her mother finally reunited, they relished cooking traditional recipes together.
It's this magical connection of love and culture that comes to life in Basbaas Sauce.
