These spices embody the essence of Italy, from its the sun-drenched hills to its azure Mediterranean shores. Fragrant Italian spices go into a wide range of dishes and elevate the basic ingredients in Italy’s cucina povera, or “poor man’s cooking”. You can mix and match your favorites to define your own style or try some blends we’ve put together for you. Italian spices and seasonings turn simple ingredients, carefully prepared, into meals that are memorable and delicious.
