Spice It Up
Herbie's - The Ultimate Spice Experience
745 Darling Street, Rozelle, NSW
I came across Herbie's about 10 years ago when I was living in Rozelle. The small shop really does contain all things spice and has become a regular shopping destination (both to stock the pantry and to buy gifts for friends). I've found the spice blends fantastic as they're a quick, simple way to add a huge amount of flavour to a dish with minimal effort. At YourWeeklyMenu, you'll see that we often use Herbie's blends to sprinkle on meat, or add a special touch to vegetables, soups etc.
I can also recommend the spice classes: a lovely relaxing way to spend a few hours and you'll be guaranteed to discover new spices & herbs as well as finding different ways to use the old pantry favourites. Here's some information from Herbie's about their classes or check the website www.herbies.com.au for more info.
Classes
Frequently
we hear people saying they are confused about the use of spices and
worried about ruining a meal if they experiment with them. It’s not
really all that difficult, so Herbie’s have put together three Spice Sessions to help you to get more out of spices and find some exciting new flavours for your cooking.
Classes are all held at Herbie’s premises in Rozelle (See calendar of dates in the PDF file below ). Tastings illustrating the uses of spices will be served during all sessions.
"Spice Advice, Food with Flair " with Jacqui: $50 incl. GST.
"Spice Appreciation 1" with Herbie: $55 incl. GST.
"Spice Blending Workshop" with Herbie: $55 incl. GST.
"All Day Session" with Herbie: $120 incl. GST 5 hours including light lunch
