Taste The Difference

In The Beginning

Etienne’s Blends was created within our own home kitchen.  It was born from a need to find spice blends that were gluten free, contained no fillers and also tasted great.  Through many tests on family and friends we feel we have  developed the finest and most versatile specialty blends on the market.

The Difference

You can taste the difference in our Etienne’s chili pepper blend as we start with seven different dry chili peppers, then stem, seed and grind them to attain the best flavor profile.  We don’t use any fillers or anti-caking ingredients. We don’t use ingredients you can’t pronounce and we continue to make our blends in small batches for the best quality.

We Make Cooking Easy

No need to guess or experiment on how much of this or that to use.  With Etienne’s Blends we do all that for you so all you have to do is enjoy.

Bring us to your next meal and never eat bored again!

About Us

In 1998, Tim was diagnosed with not only celiac disease but also a wheat allergy. 

As a result, the need for reading ingredient labels carefully and watching what we ate, as a family, became particularly important. 

As we read many of the ingredients, we found a number we could not pronounce let alone know what they were.  After doing some research we found that these were ingredients we did not need nor want in our food!  This required a huge change in the eating habits not only for Tim but for the entire family too.  At the time this was prior to the idea or need to be gluten free was mainstream, so there was not much in the marketplace.  We were also told at the time that eating gluten free meant your food would be bland and tasteless. 

This presented a challenge to create a blend that was pure ingredients, be gluten free, no fillers, no extra stuff we could not pronounce and above all add flavor without masking the taste of the food.

Tim’s Black Market Dry Rub was the first blend and through many requests and much encouragement from friends and family; Etienne’s Blends was born.
