Spice 101

Summary

Cascade Mushroom Mix is a robust ensemble of flavors, crafted to enhance the umami in your culinary creations. This blend combines ground porcini mushrooms with powdered Worcestershire, black pepper, onion, and garlic. Notably salt-free, this mix surprises with its deep, hearty body, making it an excellent choice for enriching any dish, particularly meats. It's equally effective as a standalone seasoning or as a component in a more complex spice amalgamation.

History

The Pacific Northwest is a region known for its lush forests, abundant rainfall, and a deep-rooted appreciation for the natural bounty it provides. Among its treasures, mushrooms hold a special place in the hearts and kitchens of its inhabitants. The love affair with these earthy delights has been a longstanding tradition, with foraging being a cherished pastime for many.

Mushrooms, particularly the prized porcini, have been celebrated for their rich umami flavor and versatility in cooking. This reverence for mushrooms inspired the creation of our Cascade Mushroom Mix. We sought to capture the essence of the Pacific Northwest's culinary heritage with it.

Why We Love It

It has a bold, unapologetic flavor that makes every dish sing a little louder.We'll rub it onto a roast or sprinkle it into a simmering pot of stew, and Cascade Mushroom Mix never fails to impress with its depth and versatility. It's like a secret weapon in our spice arsenal that consistently delivers a wow factor.

The More You Know

Did you know that the concept of umami, which is a key flavor profile in our Cascade Mushroom Mix, was only officially recognized as a distinct taste in the early 20th century by a Japanese scientist? This discovery has since revolutionized the culinary world, influencing how chefs and food enthusiasts think about flavor combinations and seasoning. Keep an eye out for the subtle, yet profound, way this blend enhances the natural flavors of your ingredients.
