I have used this for years... WE ALL LOVE IT!!!!

This is totally the BEST as a rub or as a seasoning! Well worth it it is now so hard to find I can only find it in gourmet meat depts like fresh fairs or high end meat markets. I use it on my Standing rib roasts my whole tri tips rib eye streaks as a rub and as a seasoning for my chuck roasts and even for my stew meat.. I used to work in the MEAT DEPT for years my customers always told me how much they loved this once I MADE them try it. I used to put it on their steaks before they bought them and they always came back and bought a whole bottle. TRY IT!More detail ...

LOVE this company LOVE the product

First off the company sent me a HANDWRITTEN thank you note. When do you see that in the age of computer print outs. I thought it was an extra touch as far as customer service. I will be returning to this company again.

The flavor is OMG. My best friend is Hawaii so I often use the red Hawaiian salt this BEATS its. It has a subtle but GREAT flavor. I will buy again!More detail ...

This is the real deal

Be careful! After trying this wonderful blend of spices with great complexity of flavor that they say is made with 35 ingredients I found ras el hanout in my local grocery store. When I tried it alongside this one there was no comparison. Then I checked the label--the local one had only 8 ingredients! It went into the trash and another order was placed to Zamouri.



Ras el hanout can be used in a number of Moroccan dishes that are fabulous although they tend to be complex to prepare--although if you're in the mood they are worth the effort. But I also use it in tomato soup to give an amazing richness of flavor to it transforming an everyday dish to a company dish. Today I'm braising short ribs and when I've cooked down the braising liquid I'll add ras el hanout to provide a symphony of flavor to it. I haven't tried it with tomatoes and cheese on an omelet but it's the sort of thing that's likely to be fabulous. With a little experimentation you'll find your own favorite uses for it.More detail ...

The Best Sea Salt I have ever tasted!

I am new to the world of gourmet salts--and this jar of flakey white granules has been in great demand in my house since we received a few weeks ago! The granules are the size of the salt on a hot pretzel--but that is where the similiarities end. The salt dissolves instantly on the tongue; it has no bitter or cloying aftertaste. The jar suggests it be used on grilled fish and salads but I would reccomend it in lieu of table salt also. More detail ...

An Olive Oil with REAL flavor

This is simply the best I've tasted and worth the price. It's bold and will hold its own in salad dressings dipping oils sauteeing and for adding to just about any light recipe although I doubt I'd bury this extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) in a sauce or a hearty stew; it's too good for disguising. I don't care for subtle olive oils. This one isn't and it's become my EVOO of choice (cold-pressed). Be aware that Columela makes several different types of EVOO so this review is meant to address only this particular varietal.More detail ...

Check Out Virgin Coconut Oil

The manufacture is correct. It is a terrific substitute for certain oil products for baking and some fried foods. But did you know that there is another use for Coconut Oil? It is wonderful on dry skin. I am brown skinned and spend a great deal of time out doors and in water. I have developed very dry/ashy skin. I have sent this product to to at least 8 others who have the same complaint and we all agree we no longer have this problem. Because it is not a cosmetic there is no overt Coconut smell (after smell). When first applied there is a soft oil sheen that after absorption disappears leaving a natural skin tone. No more embarrassingly ashy parts. Who would have thought?More detail ...

Incredible burst of flavor ecstasy in a jar

I tried this today at a local gourmet purveyor of wild mushrooms it was in a salt shaker at the cashier. I've never tasted anything so wonderful incredible. So I bought a jar immediately. I was on my lunch hour from work and I had stopped and bought a basil fresh mozzarella and tomato sandwich would this taste good on it? Oh my goodness it certainly did. A little goes a long way but this is an incredible condiment to add to your pantry. I won't be without it if I can manage it. Don't hesitate it is worth every single cent of the price.More detail ...

Excellent Product!

As someone who has been actively involved in improving my health over the past few years my research has shown the positive effects of sea and other high quality salts in a healthy diet (Suzanne Somers health experts and Doctors have written about the benefits in many of their books). I have tried many products and most are very good however I find the salts from "Salts of the 7 Seas" to be the best I have ever tried!! The quality is evident in each of the different flavors. Who knew I needed 6 different salts in my pantry? Growing up with regular table salt a gourmet salt never crossed my mind. Once I tried these products I found different uses for them on almost a daily basis with incredible results. I will continue to buy these fantastic salts for many years to come. Thank you for such an excellent product.

It's so good I don't even want to tell you because I'm afraid the price will go up (law of supply and demand)

I'm making myself tell what I would prefer to keep secret: Truly this is the best-qualitygenuine articlecold-pressed (in small quantities)olive oil made right here in the U.S.A. (California). People (including in the past myself)don't actually understand that even the olive oils imported from Italy now are sub-standard. Bariani by contrast is the nearest to what was consumed by the Greeks and Romans of long ago: simply cold-pressed in small batches no heat is used no other oils are used no other additives are used.

I'm not a gourmet instead I am a fat 51-year-old that tends to veer towards the boxed hamburger meals when desperate! This is not "snooty gourmets" liking their incidental odd-tasting items Bariani Olive Oil is truly and simply a great product and I agree with all the other reviewers: EXCELLENT.

By the way I do know the first clue that you are not buying a true olive oil is when the container is clear: true olive oil cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. Bariani uses a proper imported dark-green bottle for their very special product.

Even Olive Oil can get complicated: the majority of olive oils imported and domestic are heated not 100% olive oil and taste terrible after tasting Bariani.

I also buy through the company website and by phone and these people are so kind and upstanding -- it's family owned and they intend to keep it that way.

The only concern I have is the day will come when Bariani may have to increase their prices due to the law of supply and demand...and I would still buy it!

YES IT IS AS GOOD AS EVERYONE IS SAYING IN THEIR REVIEWS.More detail ...
