Review of The Recipe Kit by @urbanpixxels

I was bummed to have had to pass on a recent invitation to attend the press launch of The Recipe Kit, a new home cooking delivery experience allowing “customers to conveniently master professional techniques, discover rare ingredients and explore new cuisines”. However I knew such a delicious opportunity should not go wasted and thought I’d love to hear what another fellow blogging foodie thought about the service.

So I shared the invite with Dutch expat blogger Jacintha Verdegaal, whose blog Urban Pixxels is a means for her to “document and share my new London life and my quest to become a true Londoner”. I also knew I would be able to get at least a bit of vicarious joy from Jacintha’s post as she’s an excellent photographer to boot! Here’s an excerpt from her Recipe Kit with a Layer of Awesomeness write up about the event. Enjoy.

… The Recipe Kit is not the first food delivery service. But founder George Kazarian wanted to add ‘a layer of awesomeness’. It might take you a few minutes extra in the kitchen, but as a result you get to learn new techniques, discover ingredients that you won’t find in every supermarket, and explore new cuisines. I mean, how good does ‘candy beetroot salad with lamb lettuce and goats cheese’, ‘sweet potato salad with barberries and tamarind dressing’, or ‘poussin stuffed with couscous’ sound?

Every week you can select 3 recipes from 9 options on their website, and you’ll receive all the ingredients in the exact quantity needed for each dish. And on every recipe card they’ll recommend which drink and what music will perfectly complement your dish. How clever is that?!
