SKORDO Kitchen
A Conversation with S+P Plant Based Foods
Shelby is the friend who shows up to a dinner party and unloads a tote bag full of mysterious ball jars. A massive wooden cutting board appears from nowhere and the jars contents - creamy cheeses, blended veggies dips and a literal rainbow of snacks - are artfully placed on top. Turns out, the creamy 'cheese' is actually a cashew dip and suddenly you realize you've been conned into enjoying (and actually loving) a vegan 'charcuterie' board.
Tips + Tricks: SKORDO Sets
SKORDO Sets are packed with potential. Their fresh ingredients are bursting with flavors inspired by world cuisine or styles of cooking. Often gifted, these collections of four or nine ingredients are our go to for shaking up home cooking. Any time we’re in a kitchen rut, we turn to a SKORDO Set for a fun filled culinary adventure.
Perfect Pairings
The celebrity of chefs was near peak pre-pandemic and now when we’re all cooking at home and lusting after restaurant quality meals, the celebration of foodies is at an all-time high. How often do we catch ourselves listening to/watching/reaching about our favorite chefs? With front of house closed, professional kitchens are more open to us than ever before and I for one couldn’t be more excited.
Sugar Giant x SKORDO
With SKORDO I'm often creating dishes at home and sharing a recipe virtually. Sugar Giant allows me to share baked goods directly to the community. I really appreciate having SKORDO introduce me to blogging and providing me a space to gain my confidence in myself and the way I speak of my product, whether it be a blend or a pastry. I wholeheartedly believe in both businesses, the people behind them and feel so fortunate to be able to mesh the two. I love the way they naturally align together, both catering to the cravings of the community.
Introducing: Posy Sea Salt + Posy Sugar
Product development is one of our favorite things. Our floral infused sugar and salt were dreamed up nearly a year ago. It’s taken us time to find the right ingredients, strike a balance with the bold flavors and test variants in our kitchens. We couldn’t be prouder of the end results.
My Afternoon at The Lost Kitchen
We received an e-mail a few months back from none other than Erin French. You probably already know this, but she’s the chef behind The Lost Kitchen. We’re huge fans of her cookbook, and we’re delighted SKORDO spices will be a part of The Lost Kitchen’s winter market.

How It's Made: SKORDO Blends + Rubs

Mastering Spice with Lior Lev Sercarz
Welcome to a new year of good eats and food fun! We’re kicking 2021 off with a celebration of base ingredients. It will be a month filled with herbs, spices, whole foods and fundamentals inspired by Lior Lev Sercarz.
Holiday Cookies!
Whether you’re rolling out dough with a loved one, mailing some to friends, or leaving some out for Santa; cookies are essential to the holidays! My family always makes several dozen Linzer Tarts and Peanut Butter Thumbprints, but this year I decided to spice it up.
Emily in Italy
Wine, gelato, café, and of course food. These four things are what I often say living in Sicily “spoiled for me”. From 2010-2012 I had the privilege to live on the Italian island for two years while serving as a U.S. Navy Nurse. That time remains as some of the best years I’ve experienced, the vast majority of those memories surrounding wonderful company and of course, food.
Curry Comparison: Indian Madras vs. Malaysian Malay
Curry originates in India, and refers to a complex combination of spices & herbs, usually incorporating turmeric, cumin, coriander, ginger, and dried chilies. It’s a beautiful way to capture the essence of each home, as curry can vary so much from one person's interpretation to the next.
