Winter brings with it a wonderful opportunity to include delicious warming spices and herbs in meals that warm you up and give a wonderful aromatic experience when eating your food. These spices and herbs can be included in a variety of ways in your winter diet including cooked meals, desserts, soups and even spiced beverages.
Every winter season soup becomes a quick favourite either as a snack or as a full meal for breakfast, lunch or dinner. A winter soup that is always delicious and popular is butternut soup. Butternut soup has a beautiful colour, and rich flavour and is easily paired with fabulous winter spices including cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg and rosemary.
Another popular soup for winter is the traditional potato and leek soup which can be seasoned beautifully with cloves, garlic, rosemary, bay leaves and thyme. These soups make for a wonderful winter meal when served with a slice of delicious bread.
While some people love to make their soups, others prefer not to make a soup from scratch and we stock a range of soup packs that make for a delicious meal without having to prepare the soup from scratch. Some of our soups are Beef and Onion Soup, Mushroom Soup, Oxtail Soup, Tomato Beef Soup, Chicken Cream Soup, and Minestrone Soup.
A delicious winter treat that provides a hearty and warm meal is the traditional pastry pie. Whether your preference is for a hearty beef and vegetable pie, maybe a creamy chicken pie is more to your taste or a delicious vegetable pie is what you prefer, every type of pie has a delicious pie filling that needs to be seasoned perfectly for that wonderful warm pie feeling.
Luckily when it comes to seasoning pie filling there are more than enough herbs and spices to choose from. Add some delicious herbs such as bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage to your beef and vegetable pie filling for a fragrant and scrumptious beef pie.
Or, if you prefer a vegetarian option flavour your pie filling with parsley, thyme, oregano, rosemary, salt, pepper and red chilli flakes to take your vegetable pie filling to the next level.
If you or your establishment isn’t really big on cooking, another popular way of incorporating winter spices into your life is including a hot beverage like ginger tea or cinnamon-flavoured coffee. Either option is delicious and gives your winter a little bit more warmth in the morning or evening.
We stock bulk quantities of all the mentioned spices as well as delicious instant soup and pie gravy mixes making your cooking that much more delicious.
