Da Lat Spice
A popular honeymoon destination, Vietnam’s Da Lat is called the 'City of Eternal Spring,' and the unusually temperate climate of the surrounding Lam Dong Province has made it famous for coffee, cassia, and cocoa production. Our Da Lat Spice is a nod to the warm, peppery flavors of the region. In addition to spicy Vietnamese Lam Dong cocoa nibs, this rub has a touch of coffee and star anise that makes it beautiful for rubbing on pork or beef, adding to noodle dishes (like pho), or even sprinkling over cut melon or ice cream. Features directly sourced Vietnamese star anise, cassia, and cacao nibs. We're proud to source the coffee beans for this blend from Nguyen Coffee Supply, the first specialty Vietnamese coffee company in the US!
Hi, Terri.
Susan from the Curio kitchen, here.Thanks SO much for your kind words. We love this recipe and Da Lat Spice, too,!
If you haven’t already tried it in brownies, you must! Just add a couple tablespoons to your favorite dark-chocolate brownie recipe and be prepared to be blown away.
It’s equally magical in savory settings — check out our recipes for Delicata Squash and Tofu Bahn Mi. And, it’s wonderful, as you say, used as a rub for steak.
So glad you’re happy! Keep cooking and stay curious in the kitchen. We’ll keep blending the spices!
This is just a spectacular recipe! I followed it to the letter including the organic cane sugar. Such a flavorful spice blend that works perfectly as a rub on meats and in this loaf as well!
