Our 2nd most popular Organic spice set – this takes the building blocks that we have in our Organic Starter and Organic Standard spice sets and adds a couple more flavorful additions. This spice set is for the enthusiast organic cook who craves doing their part in eating healthier and saving the planet. We also have our best selling 20 jar Organic Master spice collection that’s perfect for filling your organic spice cabinet.
Your ten selections are:
Cumin Seed Powder – Cumin features an instantly identifiable flavor that is spicy-sweet, warm and somewhat bitter with earthy undertones. Its usage in the U.S. was practically non-existent up until the fairly recent exploding interest in Mexican and Latin American dishes. But for cooks in the Far East, Middle East and North Africa, Cumin has been a central spice for many years and is a key ingredient in curry, garam masala, Moroccan coucous, Tex-Mex chili and many Mexican bean, meat and rice dishes.
Coriander Seed Powder – Coriander's citrusy, warm, spicy flavor is especially popular in African, Chinese, Mediterranean, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Latin American and Southeast Asian cuisines. Try it in chili, soups, stews and with chicken (grilled or breaded), fish, game and meats.
Garlic Powder – Garlic comes in many forms and can be prepared in multiple ways and when cooking its flavor is both sweetened and softened. This is our Certified Organic Garlic Powder and it is cultivated here in the United States. Garlic powder, because it disperses easily in liquids, is an excellent choice for white sauces and other recipes where flavor, but not texture or bulk, is desired. It is also frequently used in dressings, tomato based dishes and for making your own spice blends.
Red Pepper Flakes – Our red chili peppers are dried and then crushed and the resulting deep, dark red colored flakes are perfect for spicing up your chili, pizza, salads, soups, stir-fries or vegetarian recipes. And because they are salt-free they also a terrific compliment to any Low Sodium Diet.
Italian Seasoning - Italian Seasoning is incredibly versatile as you can add it to vinegar & oil for a quick salad dressing, marry it with some top quality olive oil and use for dipping bread and of course you can add it to any tomato-based dish – from lasagna to spaghetti to pizza.
Turmeric – Turmeric tastes a bit
like a cross between ginger and pepper. It is probably best recognized
as the spice that gives curry powder its unmistakable golden orange
color.
Chili Powder – You are sure to enjoy this Organic Salt-Free Chili Powder blend that features a bit of a bite. In Tex Mex cuisine chili powder plays a significant role as its flavor gives just the right level of spicy heat. You may also substitute chili powder for any recipe calling for chili peppers.
Rosemary – In Mediterranean cuisines Rosemary is often used in fried vegetable dishes. It is also popular due to its gentle smoky flavor when used in grilling chicken and meat. The aroma of rosemary is bold, peppery and warm with undertones of camphor and pine. The flavor is also very robust while the taste is a combination of nutmeg and camphor while the aftertaste is a bit balsamic and woody.
Fennel Seed – Fennel is good with a very wide variety of dishes and is exceptional with beets, potatoes, in sauerkraut, stews, meat and chicken dishes, sauces, herb butters, dips and dressings, salads, omelets, apple pie, cakes, pastries, puddings, and spiced fruit. Works well in combination with cinnamon, cumin, fenugreek and Sichuan peppercorns.
Ground Cloves – Native to the Moluccas, the volcanic islands of Indonesia, cloves have a rich history in Indian cuisine. Cloves should be used in smaller quantities as they can easily overpower other spices. In North Africa and the Middle East cloves are found in spice blends that flavor meat and rice dishes usually with cardamom and cinnamon. Throughout much of Asia cloves are used in curries. In Mexican cuisine they are often partnered with cumin and cinnamon.
