Default Neighborly neighbors


Two different sets of neighbors just got back from their summer trips.
My next door neighbors (they did the ship tour of the Rhine) brought
me a little bundle of hot paprika. They were told by the vendor to
only sprinkle a little on top of food. The package of hot paprika is
50g. 50g seems like a lot to have around if you are only going to
sprinkle a little on top of food?
My across the street neighbor (they did the bicycle/barge/canal tour
of Holland) brought me a container of Marrakech Mix. It's a coarse
mix of herbs, spices and salt. I did a little Internet checking on
this one and I think it is meant to be a rub for raw meat? Maybe a
curry of sorts? I really can't identify specifics on the Marrakech
Mix.

My neighbors always bring me something tasty for my kitchen. I would
love some ideas for using these two spices.
Thanks
