Welcome to Cardamome&Compagnie your source for Spices, Blends, and Recipe Kits.
This month there is something to suit both ours tastes for vice or virtue. From Easter Feasting fun to the perfect little pick me up for vegetables, care of Cardamome&Compagnie.
Easter Lamb and Sweet Treats
We have a badly kept secret here at Cardamome&Compagnie. We just adore lamb! Easter therefore, is the perfect time for us to extol the virtues of this glorious meat with a plethora of lamb recipes. And we have really gone to town! With just a sample here but even more on our website, there are enough lamb recipes to make any carnivore blush with delight.
Lamb Recipes
But we fully acknowledge that lamb alone will not suffice. Where would we be without the eggs and sweet treats at the heart of Easter feasting? The season of rebirth, with religious significance or otherwise has produced cultural classics that we can all take pleasure in. What could be better than a celebration of life fortified by a moveable feast?

Piri Piri to perk up the Pious Palate
If you are feeling the effects of chocolate over indulgence and lamb overload, we have some a suggestion to restore some of your virtue.
Try our Piri Piri Portugese Blend, a wonderful herb and spice mix with a touch of lemon peel that will enliven steamed or lightly sauté vegetables with just a gentle sprinkle. Your vegetables will take on a fresh complexion and so will your skin when “you eat your greens”.
You can also use Piri Piri as a marinade for meat and fish, it is the taste of summer time all year round.
