We love to cook. We love to eat. We love gathering around a meal. For us ingredients are essential. Spices are essential. Flavor is essential. So how come some of our food still lacked that final dazzle?
This question has taken us on a journey to the very essence of flavor itself. To the source of all of those ingredients and spices we use everyday. And it was on this quest we discovered the answer.Â
Flavor comes alive through the sizzling melting pot of cooking, botany, traditions, history and geography. Flavor is of the land and from people who have dedicated their life to cultivation. The devotion to tend, harvest and ennoble a living organism. From nurture to harvest to drying to packaging. From here the rest is up to us, the culinarians.
The Pepper Quest is our way to pay homage and share one of nature's greatest gifts; flavor.
