I get this query so much. “Diane, what makes your spice blends completely different from what I can discover on the grocery store shelf?”
Or, generally, I am requested why and the way they’re completely different even from different specialty natural spice mix manufacturers that are not in most shops.
And it is a terrific query, as we pour so much into making our natural spice blends the tastiest on the market.
Listed below are 5 causes that our Balanced Bites Spice Blends are one of the best you may discover.
1. Balanced Bites spices are 100% natural.
Our blends are 100% natural, apart from sea salt (since as it may possibly’t be labeled as such). There aren’t any pesticides, fungicides, or herbicides in our spices they usually’re non-irradiated / non-GMO.
Our spice blends additionally comprise no fillers, no junk, and are all gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free naturally as we use none of these substances within the blends.
What does this imply for you?
Our natural spice blends are the best possible high quality you’ll find. Higher high quality spices means higher high quality substances in your house cooking, which suggests higher taste and optimum diet.
It could appear exceedingly easy, however the reality is that whenever you’re cooking with actual meals, the standard of every ingredient makes a distinction in how your outcomes style.

We additionally proceed to refine any flavors I really feel want it over time, in order batches of natural spices are available in, there could also be tweaks essential to the mix ratios as nature fluctuates.
What does this imply for you?
Small batches means you get not solely more energizing spices, however we will obtain a extra specialised texture end result.
When spices are machine-mixed and machine-filled, it is exhausting to maintain the fragile contact required to have fluffy, flaky herbs and spices included within the mix.
3. We use a lot of garlic, and our house-toasted garlic is one of the best.
Yup, we stated it, and it is the reality. Our garlic is healthier than what you are getting on the grocery retailer as a result of we house-toast and grind it to dimension in small batches, so the flavour is healthier and more energizing than some other you may style!
Moreover, for SUPER GARLIC & SUPER GARLIC PIZZA we mix granulated garlic with flakes which can be toasted to maximise the flavour in numerous textures.
The identical goes for our onion flakes, and also you’re getting these in our natural spice blends like SUPER ONION, COFFEE BBQ, and BAGEL mix.
What does this imply for you?
Whilst you might theoretically make lots of our blends utilizing recipes in my books (Sensible Paleo and Keto Fast Begin, to call two), whenever you purchase them from us, they may style higher, no query.
Spices offered in grocery shops are produced in big batches and spend time in distribution facilities earlier than making it to grocery retailer cabinets and ultimately to your kitchen.

Salt is the least costly ingredient of all of the spices utilized in a spice mix, and in addition the heaviest.

Not us!
Not solely will we use top quality sea salt in our recipes, however we use it sparingly – simply sufficient that your meals will style superb (hi there #noblandfood!), however not a lot that we’re attempting to chop corners.
