You already know of my unmitigated devotion to Mandy Aftel's otherworldly handcrafted face oils and perfumes, but you may not be aware that I am similarly in love with her Chef's Essence Spray. In fact, Aftelier Perfumes Fresh Ginger Chef's Essence Spray is one of the few things that gave me comfort and a sense of well-being when I was so sick with that nasty flu that has been going around this winter.
Mandy's Chef's Essences, which are used by the world's leading chefs, can be spritzed on salads, soups, chocolate bars, and dishes (including take-out) that you wish to enhance, and can also be spritzed in tea. The possibilities on how to use this culinary masterpiece are only limited by your imagination! One of my favorite uses for this gastronomical delight is to add about three sprays, which is equal to about one drop of oil, to my tea– and it beautifully enhances the flavor and is very comforting.
Ditch your dried out spices for delicious Chef's Essence Sprays! These concentrated flavors have the upper hand on spices and herbs; they outlive their traditional pantry counterparts and deliver a cleaner flavor. Use these flavors to boost the intensity of ingredients like powdered ginger or fresh basil; substitute them for out-of-season herbs or unavailable spices; or think like a chef and layer other seasonings or Chef’s Essence Sprays together to create amazing new flavor combinations.
Chef’s Essence Sprays come in a limited selection of our most popular flavors, from the same extraordinary ingredients as the concentrated Chef’s Essences. The sprays are diffused in organic grain alcohol, so there are no drops to measure, and the depth of flavor is easy to control. Simple to use, each 30 ml bottle provides around 230 sprays. The Chef's Essence Sprays are ideal for creating a cocktail or finishing a dish. A spray or two is delicious in salads, on vegetables or takeout food, for flavoring tea, and especially for mixed drinks -- really on anything, even chocolate bars!
$22.00 for 30ml. from Aftelier Perfumes (Unaffiliated Links).
