Introduction to Our “American Pantry” Product Category
with Mike Johnston
Founder
Ask five people to define American cuisine and you'll probably get five different answers. One will tell you about their grandma's apple pie. Another will tell you the secret to their family's famous gumbo is in the roux. Two will tell you about a really good sandwich they had this one time and the last will ask you to repeat the question.
It's a tough question. American cuisine is not a melting pot where many influences combine to create one giant pizza with tiny hamburgers on it (though that does sound pretty amazing.) It's a mosaic, where each piece is distinct and beautiful and compliments the pieces around it. The foods that remind me of home and family probably look a lot different than yours, and to us at Savory, that's a large part of what American cuisine is.
Our American Pantry line of spices and seasonings only represents a small handful of those American flavors. Flavors that remind us of our various homes across the country: Colorado, New York, Louisiana, and many more. We've highlighted a couple of our favorites from across the US below. But we'd like to hear from you. What flavors remind you of home? Of family gathered around the table? What are the comfort foods you turn to when you need a helping (or three) of nostalgia? Let us know in the comments below. Share your piece of the mosaic with us and the Savory Spice community. And together we'll make something beautiful.
Here are just a few of the seasonings we offer from around the country:
