But what is National Creativity Day, and where did it get started? 

What Is National Creativity Day? 

National Creativity Day is a day to celebrate creative expression in every form, from the arts and sciences to cooking a delicious meal. It was founded in 2018 and encourages people to refocus their energy on their craft, whether that is writing, blogging, photography, filming, or even cooking. The day is centered on what motivates and inspires you to create. 

How Do I Get Creative in the Kitchen? 

There are multiple ways to get inspired and create in the kitchen. So turn on some music, pull out the spices, and get cooking. You can: 

• Try new recipes. Browse our selection of recipes for innovative ways to use our spice blends. 

• Try new spice blends. We offer a variety of spice blends that bring warmth, sweetness, smokiness, and heat to the table. Try our No Nut Suya spice blend or our Pepper Soup spice blend for a new twist on already unique dishes. 

• Mix new spices. You can even create your own custom spice blends at home. Start with essentials like cumin, paprika, and garlic powder. The process as a whole is covered on a blog post found here. 

• Pair recipes with new sides. Recipes can be paired with new sides for a fresh, innovative meal. For example, fried plantains go well with jollof rice, grilled meats, and stews and curries. Mixing up the side dish can refresh a meal and give it a unique twist. 

• Try new cooking techniques. Whether you’re grilling meats or frying plantains, try out a new cooking technique that you’ve never tried before. One technique that’s especially important in West African cooking is pounding. Cooks will pound cooked starchy vegetables like yam, cassava, and plantains to make fufu and similar dishes.  

These are some creative ways to experiment with cooking on this special day. 

As we celebrate National Creativity Day, remember that creativity flourishes when you allow yourself to explore, experiment, and enjoy the process—especially in the kitchen. With Yaji Spice’s seasoning blends like jollof rice spice blend, you can create new dishes and reimagine classic dishes with a new twist. Share your flavorful creations with friends and family on social media, inspiring others to innovate. And be certain to explore our online spices store for spices that you can mix, match, and experiment with to your heart’s desire.
