Spice Route

September 11, 2009

Youll spend $30 on a good bottle of olive oil, but spices? The $1.19
supermarket mix will do just fine.


Instead, spice up your life with quality seasonings from Montreal
importers Epices de
Cru
. Known as the Indiana Jones of spices, the owners travel to
remote villages and mountain tops in search of the best flavours. Their
finds are preserved whole then presented in pretty tins, individually
(from $1.25) or by blend.

Start out with the 101 Kit ($20) featuring Spanish paprika and Indian
fennel, then go bold with the sublime eight pepper blend ($10). The
devoutly eco-conscious will love the pesticide-free line (from $4)
including Sri Lankan cinnamon and Madagascar vanilla.

PVR the Food Network and youll be the galloping gourmet in no time.

At Fino Marche Gourmand, 1616 Sherbrooke W., Montreal, 514 751-2878 or
