A Mediterranean Pepper Collection

We are proud and thrilled to announce our Exclusive Single Note Spice Collections, curated by Spice Master Lior Sercarz of La Boite a Epice. We've worked closely with Lior to select the best and most flavorful spices from around the world, and grouped them in three collections that give you, the home cook, a palette of flavors, textures, and unlimited possibilities to make memorable meals at home.

Our Mediterranean Pepper Collection spans Spain to the Middle East to add exuberant authentic flavors and color to your cooking.

Around the Mediterranean great cooks have always known that having a palette of peppers at hand creates layers of flavor to enhance and elevate recipes. Here are three that are essential to the Mediterranean cooking experience. This collection includes one 2 ounce jar of each:

Spanish Sweet Smoked Pimenton

This sweet and smoked Pimenton de la Vera is Spain’s secret weapon in the kitchen, adding complexity and exuberance to many dishes. Use in Paella and other rice dishes, grilled seafood and pasta. Pimenton even adds a kick to my grandmother’s Devilled Eggs all Nonna Flora.

Turkish Urfa Pepper

Across the expanse of the eastern Mediterranean, Urfa pepper is prized for its mild heat and smoky notes, to enhance fish, seafood, meat and desserts.

Turkish Aleppo Pepper

In the Middle East, this slightly spicy pepper with sweet and acidic notes adds a bit of a kick to dishes featuring poultry, vegetables, salads and cheese.
