Epicure Selection Dip

"As a working mother, I longed to spend more time with my young family and provide them with delicious, nutritious meals that were quick and easy to prepare."

Sylvie Rochette, President and Founder of Epicure Selections®

I've gone through it as a working mother, and I just love the ideas to this day, prepared amounts of herbs, spices or other types of condiments that will assist the speed, character and flavour of what I need to whiz up for the table on a busy day.
The products that I am writing about were evolved by a parent (Sylvie Rochette) who cared very deeply about food quality. Mrs. Rochettes' company claims to use the highest quality ingredients. In fact, each product is guaranteed.

HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT EPICURE

Although an invitation like that did not come very often, a relative had met someone who was willing to come to her home, to demonstrate at a planned party how yummy the line of spices and spice blends were.
About twenty five ladies partied for the evening, as Leah, our sales person, made sour cream and spice mix dips for all of us to try. She broke up very fresh pumpernickel bread, and each of us enjoyed the earthiness of dipping chips of the the wholesome bread into the well-balanced, fresh-tasting dips, all prepared by Epicure Selections ®

It was not too hard to remember which dip was the most appealing, since we were given a list that we could check, when something was to our taste. I bought a few of the mixes, as well as a kosher pizza pan.
When I got the three or four jars that I had selected for the first time, I tried endless recipe ideas that involved these mixes, some of which are not still listed as products. The companies' products change and evolve- last year although I really wanted one particular Thailand or Malaysian dip mix, I couldn't find it on their online catalogue. I found a new product, though - very redolant Kaffir lime leaves for cooking, exquisite with both scent and taste.
Some of the recipes upon the recipes page in this site involve the use of some of these marvellous spice mixes.
