"I don’t even live in the country anymore, but whenever I’m back in Oakland I stop by the spice shop...everyone is always so helpful, they were super sweet this last time and offered my toddler a cinnamon stick to suck on while I shopped. I highly recommend a visit, it’s always an inspiration! :)"

"I live for this salt. I give it as a gift. I put it on vegetables, in soup, in salad dressings...sometimes I just have a taste on its own. Don't even get me started about what it does to eggs, beans and avocado. Seriously... this is the best seasoning I've ever used. It's replaced salt & pepper at our house. NO REGRETS."
— Sarah B.
"As the bottom of the bottle nears, the kitchen larder calls for more. Better Than Everything Bagel Spice is now a required staple in our cozy northern kitchen."

This bright, flavorful seasoning adds pizazz to everyday cooking. Coriander, fennel and orange zest add citrusy pop while chile and onion round out the savory notes. Use it to spice up eggs, roasted vegetables and grilled meats. It's delicious in hot oil over raita.
We developed this blend with Nik Sharma, author of Season, to celebrate the release of his cookbook. He describes it as an ode to the flavors of Bombay and California.
Ingredients: Orange Zest, Aleppo Chile, Minced Green Onion, Coriander and Fennel.
If you haven't already, you'll want to add chermoula to your condiment repertoire. This bright green Moroccan herb sauce is so simple to prepare: just toss cilantro, parsley, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt and our Harissa Powder in the blender or food processor. The result is herbaceous, garlicky and a little spicy.
We devised our Montreal Steak and Chop blend based on the classic "Montreal" style, including salt, pepper, onion, garlic, coriander, caraway, dill seed and herbs.
This savory blend is perfect as a simple rub for meat, whether it's a steak, pork chop or burger.
