I learned about Skordo when a friend was visiting Maine and
happened upon a shop that she knew I would love. Skordo (Greek for
garlic) is a family owned business with two
shops, one in Portland and another in Freeport,
Maine.
As soon as I checked out their website, I placed an order and
contacted the shop about doing a promotion for our EYB members.
Since then I've placed two additional orders. I am wild about their
Maine blueberry pork rub and blueberry sugar and cannot wait to dive
into the recipe kits I purchased: Spiced molten chocolate cake and Kue Lapis: Indonesian spiced layer cake. Their
items are packed with care and once you tear into a box you are
enveloped by a world of aromas and culinary possibilities.
Not only does Skordo sell spices, rubs and kits but they also
offer an assortment of kitchen products, cookbooks and more! Their
rewards program is something to take advantage off - for every
purchase you earn coupons towards additional orders. There are
other ways to earn points as well! If you love Skordo as much as I
do, you will be earning points and discovering new spice blends and
recipes in no time.
Skordo is offering one of our members a World on a Plate Set along with two
recipe kits: Chicken Tagine with Chickpeas, Pine Nuts, and
Olives Kit and Amchoor Chana - Chickpeas with Mango Powder
Kit in our giveaway below.
