The Essential Vegetable & Sides Collection

Made for the cook who plans the side dishes before the main, or the vegetable gardener with more squash and green beans than ideas. A great gift for vegetarians and vegans alike, but also a good fit for a housewarming, a birthday, or a Christmas or holiday gift for whoever brings the Thanksgiving side dishes every year. Four full-size jars arrive in a Savory Spice gift box, ready to give as-is.

Toss with olive oil and roasted vegetables before they go in the oven, or sprinkle over after. Mt. Olympus works on potatoes, cucumber salad, and grilled zucchini. Za'atar is best on cauliflower, carrots, and flatbread, or stirred into yogurt for a dip. Four Mushroom Umami Blend goes into risotto, vegetable soup, and roasted mushrooms, and adds savory depth to anything meatless. Capitol Hill suits green beans, potatoes, and squash.

Vegetables usually get the least attention on the plate and the least interesting seasoning in the cabinet. These four blends change that: bright and lemony, warm and nutty, deeply savory, or herby and fresh, depending on which jar you reach for. All handcrafted and ground fresh in small batches.
