5 Spice Witch Pairings with Asheville Brands We Love

Great food comes out of Asheville, and man are we proud of it.

I have gotten to work with and try so many incredible local brands, so I wanted to shout out some favorite Spice Witch and Asheville pairings.

These are not polite little suggestions.

These are the pairings that make you take one bite and immediately get smug.

If you are looking for new ways to use Spice Witch at home, this is a good place to start.

1. Darë Vegan Cheese

So many great flavors, but we love the Lusty Mustard.

Try it with

A spoonful of Spice Witch Chili Crisp over Darë Vegan Cheese on toast or crackers with sliced tomato.

Why it works

Creamy, tangy, mustardy, crunchy, spicy.

This is a very good situation.

Best Spice Witch pairing

Chili Crisp for texture and layered flavor.

2. Full Moon Tea Company

Bright, fun, and dangerously good tea.

Full Moon Tea Company feels very on brand for us, especially because their hibiscus tea makes a killer margarita with our hot honey. It is bold, flavorful, and ridiculously easy to love.

Why it works

Floral, tart hibiscus plus sweet heat is a strong combo for parties, dinner nights, or just making an ordinary night feel better.

3. Wild Goods

We love Wild Goods Ramp Butter. It is Asheville spring in butter form, rich and savory and wildly good with eggs.

Try it with

Our Turkish eggs recipe with creamy yogurt, Wild Goods Ramp Butter, and a drizzle of Spice Witch Chili Oil on top.

Want the recipe

Make our Turkish Eggs here

Why it works

Ramp butter plus chili oil is rich, savory, and perfect with creamy yogurt and soft eggs.

Best Spice Witch pairing

Chili Oil for a warm finish and smooth flavor.

4. Smokee’s Pizza

Pizza night was already a good idea. Then this showed up.

They have a special on the menu right now with our hot honey on it, which feels correct.

Or build your own and add Spice Witch hot honey to any pizza, because more is more.

Why it works

Sweet heat plus savory heat plus pizza.

Be serious.

Best Spice Witch pairing

Hot honey first, then Chili Oil or Chili Crisp if you want even more flavor and texture.

5. Habibi Village

Based in Asheville and sharing Lebanese culture through Saj bread, Habibi Village makes food feel like community and full of flavor.

Try it with

Warm Saj bread with Spice Witch Chili Oil or Spice Witch Chili Crisp.

Why it works

Fresh bread, bold spice, shared plates.

That is a very good move.

Best Spice Witch pairing

Either one works.

Use Chili Oil for a drizzle and Chili Crisp for crunch.
