We picked up a box of several Skordo mixes in the Old Port on a whim last year. I have found the Odobo to be quite versatile. I’ve used it successfully with various beef, chicken, and fish cuts as a rub before going into a hot cast iron skillet.
A favorite! We’ll be purchasing this again and again, for ourselves and to give as gifts. We’ve made this recipe twice already. The most recent time was for a holiday gathering with family, and we doubled it using two packets. Everyone went back for seconds, with plenty of leftovers for people to take home.
Classic addition to your collection from the Queen of hosting.
This spice mix is the perfect addition to your holiday traditions. Very easy to make, from parties, to dinners, to a perfect evening at home. It will awaken your senses and remind you of everything that makes the holiday season so special.
We prepared the dish with two kinds of fish, halibut and cod.. there was ample sauce for both dishes… the family loved it so lush!!
Sheet pan dinner: Skin-on chicken thighs marinated in the Vadouvan and olive oil, along with sliced Yukon Gold potatoes, Delicata squash, mushrooms, shallots and garlic, drizzled with olive oil and more of the seasoning as well as kosher salt and fresh pepper. Added a dollop ofp lain greek yogurt on top. Super simple, subtle, aromatic, and satisfying. Love this stuff!
Love it… especially on my delicata squash fries!
This is going to make a great gift for my neighbor who loves curry. My experience in the store was 10 out of 10. Everyone was so helpful
This is a perfectly balanced potpourri - some other brands give you all poppy and not enough of everything else - this one shakes out in equal parts every time!
Delicious! Used for a Maple Walnut cheesecake and it was amazing.
Looks great and does its job
We are totally obsessed with the maple salmon rub. After receiving some in a gift pack, we harass everyone who visits us here in Australia from the U.S. to bring us some!
Fennel Pollen is pricey but a little goes a long way. It's not widely used but can offers a unique flavor!!
I bought this as part of a gift. I love the spices are curated to allow making the recipe so easy.
I didn’t realize until I was being rung up that I was charged for the packaging. Why?
Hello,
Thank you so much for reaching out — and I’m really sorry for the confusion at checkout. We do have signage in the shop and our team is expected to communicate the packaging cost, but it’s clear we missed that with your visit. That’s on us, and I truly apologize.
We’ve gone ahead and refunded the $2 for the packaging. Never our intention to be unclear — we want every part of your experience with us to feel straightforward and positive.
If there’s anything else we can clarify or help with, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

While I like all kinds of peppers, there's nothing better than getting them all together in this amazing blend. Very unique and top quality.
Amazing flavor and aroma. Texture also perfect in the pepper mill when ground.
The cayenne and chili powder horribly overpowers any taste or hint of chocolate; all we tasted was heat.
Love everything we’ve ever gotten here but this one; need to recalculate the mixture.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this feedback — and for being such a loyal SKORDO customer. We’re sorry to hear this blend ran hotter than expected. Because our cayenne is ground in small batches, the natural heat level can vary from harvest to harvest, and it appears a recent batch came in spicier than usual.
Thanks to your note, we’ve already adjusted our recipe to bring the heat back into balance. We’d love to refund your payment for this since you were not happy with it - please reach out with your order number so we can process that for you.
We truly appreciate you helping us keep our blends their very best. If you’d like to try the updated batch, we’d love to send one your way.
Maple salmon rub is a fan/family favorite in our house. I rub the salmon thoroughly with this spice, add pats of butter and drizzle with maple syrup. Sooo 😊 good!!!
This company is fantastic to work with! This spoiling confetti is my favorite kitchen tool !!!! It is very well made and fun to look at! Great customer service and quality product!

This has been on rotation lately! Sprinkle a little on each side of a steak, sear, throw some butter in the pan and baste until done. Chef's kiss!
My husband will love them for his Monday Manhattan!
