Whole Black Vanilla, 14-16cm+ from Madagascar Bulk

$46 by pod (moq 2 pods)

The vanilla orchid is native only to Mexico and relies on a rare black Mexican bee to pollinate naturally. In 1841, a French owned 12-year old slave on Île Bourbon (now Réunion Island) discovered how to hand-pollinate vanilla orchids. Shortly thereafter vanilla plantations were introduced and became commonplace on the island of Madagascar.  It is a vine of which some thirty sub-species have been identified. The vanilla market has products of different origins with marked differences:
• Mexican vanilla (vanilla fragans) with its subtle chocolate, spice and fruit fragrance
• Tahitian vanilla (vanilla tahitensis), has a low vanillin content and strong aniseed aroma with notes of prunes.

Roasted Cocoa Beans from Madagascar – 80g

$113 $96

We invite you to try one of the most famous cocoas in the world. The quantity of cocoa coming from Madagascar is only very small but the beans have an outstanding flavour. The beans have very little odour. In the mouth the chocolate taste appears immediately, with a burnt sideand a pleasant bitterness, without any sweetness.

Cooking tips : To use “sweet” use it crushed to flavour yogurts, white cheeses, creams, ice creams, to give some crunch to your cakes and chocolate mousses and in cakes. Enveloped in a thin chocolate cover, you can make a great sweet to snack on alone or ideally with coffee. But the lack of sugar means it can be used in “savoury” dishes, for flavouring sauces, with game, pigeon and even foie gras.

Espelette Pepper PDO Powder – 40g

$139 $118

The Espelette pepper, also known as Piment d’Espelette, is a chili pepper cultivated in the French commune of Espelette, Pyrénées-Atlantiques. It is mildly hot, measuring up to 4,000 Scoville Heat Units.

When it comes to Basque cuisine, the Espelette pepper reigns supreme. The Basque country straddles the borders between France and Spain, both of which influence the area’s cooking techniques. The fact that it is flanked by the abundant sea on one side and fertile land on the other, you’ll find a diversity of dishes, from seafood and meats to beans, cheeses, ciders and wines.

Because this pepper is so prevalent to the Basque region cuisine and economy, it was confirmed as an PDO/AOC product in 2000 and an APO product in August 2002. AOC stands for Appellation d’origine contrôlée, or “controlled designation of origin”.

It is widely grown for commercial use in China, India, and most other countries in Asia. Star anise is an ingredient of the traditional five-spice powder of Chinese cooking. It is also a major ingredient in the making of phở, a Vietnamese noodle soup.
