Kitchen Nomad: A Review

Kitchen Nomad is a brand new food subscription service that delivers speciality products from all over the world direct to your front door. Launched last month, the team behind Kitchen Nomad have created this unqiue service to offer customers a convenient way with which to discover ingredients from other cultures and to experience how they taste from the comfort of their own homes. No need to eat out at world cusine speciality restuarants, instead you can cook your own versions of such meals in your own time and in your own kitchen.

Every month Kitchen Nomad will choose a different country from around the world and carefully source the authentic products unique to that country and search for recipes associated with it too. Then it is all gift packed in beautiful packaging and posted to your address - a culinary surprise to tempt your taste buds each month. 

Each box will contain

*7-9 speciality products, 

*5 authentic recipes to serve 4- 6 people

*some interesting facts about the culinary habits and customs of the country being highlighted.

I was sent a food box for the month of June, their launch month, and it was all about Greek cusine. I was amazed by how much I received and very impressed with the quality of the goods and the recipe cards - the photography and standard of these was very high and will be kept in my recipe book cupboard afterwards.

I cooked the orzo but did my own version as the card suggested using lamb but we are not fans of that meat in this household. Instead, I roasted some peppers and onions and added it to the orzo, garlic, cassia bark (a traditional Greek seasoning similar to cinnamon) and tomatoes, adding some feta at the very end before serving. I served it with some roast chicken and it was delicous, very similar to a risotto but with a slight heat from the casia bark. 

You can either subscribe to Kitchen Nomad from just £22 per month or order a one off gift subscription for the same price. You can of course do either of these on a more regular monthly basis which also reduces the cost. 

I think this is excellent value for money because if you were having a dinner party with a themed menu, you would have all the tools you need to get your evening started. Personally, I would be chuffed to bits if I recieved a box as a gift as I love to have something that little bit different and not run of the mill.
