Pure Spices We Love Now
Ground shiitake mushrooms with deep umami flavor adds wow-factor to your kitchen! As our supplier told us "Zen monks found forest-grown Shiitake is the best Umami enhancer for Vegan Cuisine more than 1000-years ago."
Spice Origin:
Directly sourced from the quiet mountains of south-west Japan on the island of Kyushu.
How to use it:
Add to stocks, sauces, and soups. Try in stir-fries or rice dishes.
Special Tip:
Maximize flavor 3x by adding a little water and waiting 10 minutes before using. 1 pre-soaked tsp = 1 dry TBSP.
We believe that every jar of spice has the power to connect people, improve lives, and protect our planet.
By supporting our small spice business, you're helping make positive, meaningful change to our local and global communities.

Travel with our founder Claire to meet the women behind the single origin spices in our newest blend.
Claire launched Curio Spice Co. out of her garage with $600 and a blender. Now, we've grown into a small but mighty company thanks to your support.
Inspired by her travels, Claire created our Signature Blends: bold, evocative flavor sketches that capture a sense of place. Blended in-house in small batches here in Massachusetts and packed in infinitely recyclable tins, they’re made to take your cooking somewhere new.
We work to improve the lives of spice farmers by directly sourcing from small, sustainable farms.
Our spices are non-irradiated and non-GMO, with no additional fillers. They are freshly ground and packed in-house in Massachusetts.
We inspire culinary curiosity by crafting blends and hosting classes and events that celebrate global flavors.
Curio's Culinary Bookshop is our culinary education hub, where we host free and ticketed events for our local community.
We strive to make an impact on climate resilience wherever we can; in how we ship, source, and choose our spice partners.
As a Certified B Corp™, we always challenge ourselves to find ways to push forward.
