The morning market in Agadir hums like a slow drum: citrus piled in pyramids, bundles of fragrant herbs, and the occasional call of a vendor urging you toward the next spice stall. You follow a local chef down a narrow lane, palms dusted with flour, and the air shifts from salt-scented breeze to the warm, cumin-rich steam of a kitchen where tajin simmers.
