Has the cost of some spices and seasoning got you dreading a visit to the shops? Is finding quality, affordable spices like looking for a needle in a haystack? And is the range of budget friendly and seasoning limited?

You’re not alone. In these tough economic times, South African families from Polokwane to Paternoster are feeling the pinch and looking for the easiest and most affordable way to shop for, and prepare, deliciously seasoned and healthy food to give them more money at the end of their month. In this article we bring you affordable spice options to help you cook perfectly seasoned meals.

Affordable Spices

When stretching a tight budget, we’re all on the lookout for affordable spices. Look no further than Knorrox’s range of spices, perfect for stews, vegetables, gravy, beans, oxtail and just about any dish you can imagine. Boasting the rich, reliable flavour South Africans have come to know and love, Knorrox spices include chicken, barbeque and our special All-in-One, perfect for pap, rice, eggs, chips and even breyani.

Cost sensitive families shouldn’t have to compromise on using the best. Can spices and seasoning be of good quality, as well as affordable? We at Knorrox know they can.

Let’s face it, a dish without spices or seasoning is like a zebra without stripes - it just doesn’t look right and, more importantly, it doesn’t taste great either. In this article, we will show you how to get quality, economy spices and seasoning into your kitchen on a tight budget.

Robust Meaty Flavour Without Compromise

Regardless of our bank balance, none of us wants bland food. It’s just not the South African way. Which means we’re good at finding high-quality, value-for-money products. The key is finding the right balance between quality and price. Cheaper seasonings often lack flavour, so you end up using a lot more to get the taste you crave. And why compromise?

Well-sourced spices and seasonings, rich in taste and aroma, don’t have to cost the earth. Knorrox spices and seasoning are low on price but big on meaty flavour. You only need a small amount to make a big impact on your meals, so it goes further in feeding a larger family.
