GINGER & TURMERIC are old best friends from India. Used in many of the same dishes, they complement each other extremely well – like most best friends do. These dried roots belong to the Zingiberaceae family and are said to have remarkable health benefits – possibly even more so together with grated PEPPER.
GINGER belongs to the Zingiberaceae family and comes from the Karnataka- Kerla state in India.
It is used in many of the same dishes as TURMERIC and these sun-dried roots complement each other extremely well. They are said to have remarkable health benefits – possibly even more so together with grated PEPPER.
For some extra zing in your cooking, grate the dried roots into a classic curry, a delicious Caribbean sweet potato soup or your breakfast chia seed pudding. Or why not grate and stir into a fresh cocktail or your favorite smoothie? Works great on top of your morning latte, tea or super-healthy detox shot, too.
BLACK comes with three shimmering KALA NAMAK salt rocks from India. These rocks are truly a secret ingredient – especially in the VEGAN CUISINE – as it adds an eggy, tangy and slightly smoky taste due to its high sulfur content. The flavors make it perfect for many vegan dishes like tofu scramble, chickpea omelets and in various fruit salads.
Grated KALA NAMAK salt also works very well in chaats, chutneys and raitas, but is maybe even more common on savory deep-fried snacks. For an unexpectedly delicious flavor, grate it over your Friday night popcorn. Will turn them into a true RIVSALT gastronomic experience.
CINNAMON in the form of cassia bark is used as a perfect flavoring agent for desserts, pastries and meat. Grated cassia bark is also used in many curry recipes and of course as a new tradition on the Swedish Christmas rice pudding.
The cassia sticks are extremely hard and usually consist of one thick layer making them perfect to grate with our RIVSALT graters.
Nutmeg is known for its warm, spicy aroma and wide use. You often find it in pumpkin pies and cakes, but it can also give sweet and savory food that extra kick of flavor. Nutmeg is especially suited for creamy or cheesy dishes such as lasagna, creamed spinach and mashed potatoes (with butter, a lot).
Add freshly grated Nutmeg to custards, pancake batter and banana-based desserts. Stir some into your chocolate mousse. Sprinkle Nutmeg shavings on top of hot chocolate or an espresso. Taste it. Smile. Have some more.
Common in many cuisines, chili peppers are used to add heat and flavor. Whether you grate it over risottos, pastas or tacos, chili gives every dish a fiery aroma. But not all of them are as hot as many people think. Chili peppers belong to the paprika family [Capsicum] and the exclusive yellow AMAZON CHILI [Capsicum Annuum] adds a milder fruity note to your dish.
Our yellow amazon chili grows in Colombia. It belongs to the sharper but not extreme group of chilies with 50.000-70.000 Scoville heat units. Amazon chilies are harvested just before full ripeness, that’s why they are yellow. Refine your soups, meat dishes and dips with this grated delight.
Common in many cuisines, chili peppers are used to add heat and flavor. Whether you grate it over risottos, pastas or tacos, chili gives every dish a fiery aroma. But not all of them are as hot as many people think. Chili peppers belong to the paprika family [Capsicum] and from the red organic birds eye chili [Capsicum Frutescens] you get the well-known tongue-tingling heat.
JALAPENO CHILI makes many of us think of Tex-Mex, the exciting mix of Mexican and Spanish food that Tejanos – Texans of Mexican descent – developed in the late 19th century. Tortillas, nachos, and burritos are some mouth-watering examples that are appreciated by more people than those who live in the Lone Star State.
Rivsalt’s green JALAPENO CHILI [Capsicum Annuum] is grown in Spain. The taste is mild, round, and fruity with a heat around 5,000 Scoville units. Sprinkle grated jalapeño over meat dishes such as chili con carne and goulash, season the cheddar cheese sauce and grate jalapeño over your homemade pizza. Jalapeño chili is mild enough to suit most dishes and hot enough to make a difference.
