Poppy Seeds, Blue Dutch
$9.25 – $18.50
Poppy plants have been cultivated for more than 3,000 years. Although a product of the opium poppy, these tiny seeds don’t have narcotic side effects. (However, we have heard rumors that consuming an excessive amount of poppy seeds may cause failure of a drug test.)
Add a nutty, crunchy flavor to salad dressings, breads, rolls, cookies, cakes, and pastries or sprinkle on rice and noodle dishes for an additional layer of flavor and texture.

Rose
$10.00 – $12.00Defining a rose as anything more than as itself was beyond Gertrude Stein, and we will not try to embarrass ourselves in the attempt.
A Rose is a Rose. Roses & other flowers have been used as flavorings for millennia across many cultures. In teas and tisanes, roses have long been considered a cure-all. This history, along with its delicate floral flavor and lovely color, made it particularly popular during the Victorian era.
Cumin
$8.50 – $24.30Native to the Mediterranean and South Asia, Cumin is also a signature flavor for Central American and European cuisines. As a symbol of love and fidelity during the Middle Ages, wedding guests carried Cumin in their pockets, and wives of soldiers added it to baked bread for their husbands. Our Cumin is hand harvested, and has a high percentage of essential oils, delivering more powerful aromatics, and a slightly astringent, citrusy quality.
Tarragon, French
$8.00 – $16.00Introduced to England by the Tudor family in the 16th century, and dubbed by the French as the King of Herbs, Tarragon made its way to America with the colonists. It is a predominant flavor in classic French cuisine.
Add to sauces, salads, vinegar, dressings, poultry, and fish. Avoid overcooking. Sprinkle on broiled chicken at the end of cooking and use in pan gravy. Pairs well with cheeses, vegetables, and eggs. French tarragon has a sweet, licorice flavor. [Tarragon]
