RawSpiceBar: $6.40 / month
Okay, so RawSpiceBar is more an envelope than a box, but it's still a subscription! This was my first month to try it, and I was super impressed. The envelope includes three spice flavor kits that are native to a particular region, which is the theme for that month. This month was Ethiopia! The information card included with the spices came with background info on the region, stories with culinary history, and some excellent recipe ideas.
The spice blends are:
- Ethipoian Mitmita: a "bright orange, crazy hot spice blend" that is one of Ethiopia’s most famous spice mixes. Includes African birds eye chili peppers, cardamom, black peppercorns and others.
- Berbere: apparently the most famous spice blend of Ethiopian cuisine. A smoky, spicy mix great on meats and poultry.
-Pumpkin Pie Spice: good for more than pie! Includes freshly ground cinnamon, allspice and star anise, great for squashes, yogurt, and the included recipe for ricotta bites. Um, yum!
RawSpiceBar's tag line is all about Small Batch, Freshly Ground, Global Spices, and they definitely deliver. Can't wait to see what next month brings. I love a sense of adventure in my cooking, yeah?
I also highly recommend checking out their blog to see other recipe ideas and get more inspiration!
