NEW! McCormick®2008 Gourmet Collection

New On-Trend Flavors Inspire and Delight
Explore the flavor and inspire the inner chef with McCormick’s new Gourmet offerings. These exciting additions reflect the latest food trends, including America’s passion for authentic techniques/ingredients and influences from around the globe.

With an extensive network of researchers, trend experts, and chefs, McCormick keeps its finger on the pulse of flavor. New McCormick Lavender, Cocoa Chile Blend, Diced Jalapeño Peppers and Toasted Sesame Seed reflect America’s evolving palate.

Varieties: Cocoa Chile Blend: This unique blend of cocoa powder and Chipotle peppers delivers sweet heat to favorite foods. Add old-world authenticity to marinades, chili and spice rubs. Or give a rich, warm flavor to desserts like chocolate cake and brownies. (Featured in the McCormick® Flavor Forecast™ 2008)

Lavender: Lavender boasts a subtle floral flavor well-suited for both sweet and savory dishes. This aromatic herb is excellent for flavoring ice cream, cookies and cakes, as well as pairing with chicken or lamb. (Featured in the McCormick Flavor Forecast 2007)

Toasted Sesame Seed: These sesame seeds have a golden color and nutty flavor, perfect for encrusting chicken and fish. Add to Asian recipes such as stir-fry, rice, salads or vegetables.

Diced Jalapeño Peppers: Enjoy the fresh taste of jalapeños anytime. These diced peppers build flavorful heat in chili, cornbread, spice rubs and salsas, adding an authentic and distinctive flavor to any dish.

Package/Price:    Cocoa Chile Blend: 2 oz., $3.99 per bottle
Lavender: .32 oz, $3.89 per bottle
Toasted Sesame Seed: 1.62 oz., $3.79 per bottle
