Love super fresh shrimp cooked to perfection and swimming in a garlicky olive oil sauce? Us, too. Don't forget the crusty bread to sop up all that garlic goodness for this one... "My biggest recommendation is to not overcook the shrimp. Have all your ingredients ready and your oil hot. The garlic will quickly come to a golden brown so be prepared with the shrimp and the wine. This is a fresh yet fully involved savory profile that will have you making it twice a week." - Chef Christian Just like Spiceology's signature blends, Spanish cuisine puts simple-yet-quality ingredients to work in the most delicious ways; the classic Spanish-inspired flavors of rich tomato, smoky paprika, a zing of vinegar, and mild herbs mix to create an ultra-versatile blend. Spain's national motto is "Plus ultra" aka further beyond - and we can't help but think this Latin phrase also perfectly describes what Spiceology Tomatador is bringing to the table.
