Chad

Chad has worked at AllSpice for a number of years, but who knows for sure how many. His favorite products include Smoked Sweet Paprika, House Seasoning, Cape Cod, Berbere and Tellicherry Peppercorns.

When asked about his favorite part of the job, Chad said “I love working with our customers, both the regulars and the first timers. It’s fun to help people figure things out, learn new tricks, and meet new people.”

He doesn’t have just one thing he likes to cook, saying “I love to explore new things. A few years ago I was really into trying to make great pho broth, then I moved on to deciphering Moroccan cuisine. I’ve gotten into Persian food lately, specifically, trying to get the perfect crust on rice. But, when I want to feel happy and content, I love to make more traditional fried chicken or meatballs and force friends into helping me.”
