SPICE ISLANDS SPICE RACK—SEE BACK COVER
_From Our Recipe File to Yours_
From appetizers to desserts—it is our pleasure to share these choice
recipes with you. We hope that you will make them as they were developed
and tested—with the spices, herbs and seasonings of Spice Islands. You
will appreciate why from the moment you open a Spice Islands jar.
For you who love to improvise with flavors and vary your own favorite
recipes, an herb chart is included in this booklet. It is limited by
space, but we think you will find it a useful guide in seasoning with
herbs.
Remember—the purpose of an herb, like that of a spice, is to enhance,
not dominate, the flavor of the food. So be selective when you
experiment. Until the art of seasoning with herbs is mastered, use just
one or two at a time.
Be especially sparing with the spices and herbs of Spice Islands, for
they are exceptionally full-flavored. Only the finest of each species is
used, and they come to you from Spice Islands exquisitely cured and
radiantly fresh and fragrant.
SPICE ISLANDS HERBS are California grown on farms owned and operated by
Spice Islands Company. In this way, select strains can be cultivated
with a quality control impossible to duplicate. The fullest flavor of
these herbs is yours because of the extreme care in growing, curing, and
processing.
SPICE ISLANDS SPICES come from those faraway parts of the world where
the finest grow—cinnamon from Viet Nam, nutmeg from the Isles of Banda,
ginger from Jamaica, and pepper (such pepper!) from Java. Whatever it
is, the very best is in your Spice Islands jar.
SPICE ISLANDS WINE VINEGARS are produced from fine wines of California’s
Sonoma Valley, and have an incomparable bouquet and mellow tang. There
is red wine vinegar plain or flavored with garlic, tarragon, or
eschalot; white wine vinegar plain, flavored with basil, or a sprig
float of tarragon.
SPICE ISLANDS TEAS are gathered at the peak of the season from the best
gardens in Japan, Formosa, Indonesia, Ceylon, and India. There are
eleven delectable blends—any will add an epicurean touch.
If the good things of life are for you, then let Spice Islands work its
wonders in your cooking and enjoyment of good food.

When you need a tasty sauce or gravy, SPICE ISLANDS Beef Stock Base
comes to your rescue. There are countless variations you can try.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit
http://pglaf.org
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works.
Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
http://www.gutenberg.org
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
