Description
Chef Mike, Terry, John Michael, and our entire staff at Caliente Gourmet would like to thank each and every one of our wonderful customers, from all over the world, who visited our retail shops over the past three years, first in San Marcos, then Escondido, and finally Carlsbad, CA. Because of the growth of our own specialty gourmet products and seasoning company, we have shifted gears, so to speak, and closed the retail shops. Increasingly higher mall overhead was a major factor. (It's too bad that malls are driving away small local businesses. One of these days, very soon, all malls will look alike...wait a minute...they DO look alike!) We'll continue to serve our loyal retail customers through this website and select retail establishments, as we continue to expand our wholesale and food service business.
ABOUT OUR SEASONINGS & PRODUCTS
We began with only two "Chef Mike" gourmet blends a few years ago, and launched the "Old Texican" line in 2002, winning an astonishing seven top industry awards that year, including two international First Place Awards. I think we did it because our Old Texican Seasonings are the best tasing and best made seasonings anywhere. We take the extra time to find the freshest and best ingredients - not the cheapest - and we blend in small batches to insure freshness and top quality. We don't use any artificial anything. Think about it... If you need a chemistry degree to understand what you're eating, you have to figure something's wrong. We don't use chemical additives. And we will never use MSG.
Now, I'm not adverse to salt, but I use what my recipes call for, for the desired flavor only, not to fill up a big jar and make you think you're getting a bargain. Salt costs about 30 cents a pound nowadays. If it's first, that's what you're buying. We just won't blend that way. Again, I'm going for the flavor! That's also why I use premium quality garlic and onion ingredients from Gilroy, California, where the world's best tasting garlic comes from.
