A few words about Chef John,
The DUDE
Over many years and in many kitchens, I have curated spice blends for what seems like every flavor combination imaginable. When I cooked in Zanzibar, I was impressed with how much better a simple piece of fresh fish tasted when combined with fresh spices ground straight from the spice farm next door. After that, I set out to source the freshest and highest quality spices to put together in my craft spice blends and bring them to your home.
