Description

Healthy Mediterranean cooking starts here. The Mediterranean Pantry Kit brings together 7 essential ingredients we reach for every day—so you can stock your kitchen with the basics and start cooking with confidence. Whether you’re just getting into Mediterranean cooking or refreshing your pantry, this thoughtfully curated kit makes it easy to create simple, flavorful meals at home.

Each ingredient is chosen for its quality, versatility, and the bold, vibrant flavor it brings to the table. From finishing dishes with a drizzle of rich Greek olive oil to building layers of flavor with warm spices and pantry staples, this kit gives you everything you need to cook the Mediterranean way—fresh, wholesome, and deeply satisfying—a $86 value. 

Included in the bundle:

  • Koroneiki - Organic Greek EVOO: Greek extra virgin olive oil from the area of Kolymvari on the western coast of Crete, produced from 100% organic green Koroneiki olives. It has a medium intensity ideal for everyday use with flavor notes of fresh apple, artichoke, and sweet almond.

  • Sumac: A tangy, deep red spice made from dried and ground berries of the Rhus coriaria shrub, prized in Middle Eastern cooking for its bright, citrusy flavor with subtle earthy sweetness.

  • Aleppo Pepper: A mildly spicy, fruity chili flake with a subtle sweetness, often compared to raisins or sun-dried tomatoes, used to enhance dishes much like salt with a distinct Mediterranean flair.

  • Cumin: Made from the dried seeds of the Cuminum plant, it offers a warm, earthy flavor and strong aroma, making it a staple across Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Asian, and Mexican cuisines.

  • Sweet Spanish Paprika: Imported from Spain and made from ground sweet red chilies, it adds a mild warmth, vibrant color, and subtle peppery sweetness to everything from meats and seafood to eggs and vegetables.

  • Harissa Paste by Kartago: A traditional North African condiment crafted with a perfect blend of sun-ripened chili peppers, garlic, and a harmonious mix of spices, that will elevate your dishes to new heights.

  • Pearl Couscous: Made from toasted durum wheat semolina, these tiny pasta-like pearls cook quickly and become lightly chewy, delicious on their own or dressed up in a variety of ways.

How to Use

Koroneiki - Organic Greek EVOO: Great for everyday use, this oil pairs especially well with vegetables, leafy greens, and garden salads.

Sumac: It’s a great way to add bright, lemony flavor to dishes and rubs. It pairs especially well with rich meats like lamb, helping to cut through the richness and create balance. You can use it in salad dressings, marinades, and homemade dips, or as a finishing touch on a wide range of dishes—much like a squeeze of lemon juice at the end of cooking instantly brightens everything up.

Aleppo Pepper: Replace crushed red pepper flakes with Aleppo pepper for a sweeter flavor profile with lesser heat. Sprinkle on top of dips, like hummus, or on some feta cheese or eggs. And you can't go wrong with adding it to your grilled chicken wings, hot off the grill!

Cumin: In Mediterranean cooking, cumin is regularly used in spice mixes for fish, seafood, and vegetarian dishes. It is the perfect compliment to caramelized oven roasted cauliflower, adding depth and warmth.

Sweet Spanish Paprika: Add a layer of warmth and sweet flavor to meat, chicken, seafood, eggs and vegetable dishes. It makes a perfect flavoring for rubs as well. 

Harissa Paste by Kartago: Perfect for marinating meats, spicing up soups and stews, or simply replacing hot sauce to add a kick to your favorite dishes.

Pearl Couscous: A quick, versatile side that works beautifully in salads, grain bowls, and soups, or tossed with pesto as a base for proteins like grilled chicken.
