It gives me great pleasure to be the first to review AND to give a five-star review to this classic line of fine spices and herbs. Their jars and labels alone are enough reason for me to pay a tad bit extra for a container of spice.
The Spice Islands array of spices is dizzying... everything from commonplace Black Pepper to the more exotic Beau Monde. I have used their ingredients my entire adult life. The spaghetti sauce mixture is my secret ingredient in pasta recipes. Allow me to share the formula with you:
