“Whenever I order from Tastesmiths I order for myself and my three daughters and their families. My treat which makes me very popular. We all love the products, I have some in the freezer at the moment. Apart from the lovely fresh produce and the specialist herbs and spices we love the whole process of making delicious recipes from scratch. My eldest granddaughter in particular has developed quite a flair with the help of Tastesmiths.”

“I tried tastesmiths with optimism as I love the idea of how it works but I honestly thought it was a bit meh. Firstly I followed the recipie to a tee and on both occasions the curry ended up tasting very watery, the second of which to the point where I couldnt eat it. The second issue I have is the fact the recipie is written so that you cant make it your self. "Add bag 1 to mix" doesnt tell me anything past that If I want to make them again I have to buy them again. Good for a novelty present but unless it changed, not much else.”

Hi Brett, sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy cooking with us. Generally, our kits are very well received as you can see by the rest of our feedback! As for the second issue, our business model would be in trouble if customers only bought the one 😇

“Lovely currys. Only issue I've had is didn't realise I had to refrigerate so peppers started to mould, I bought 6😢 had to open them all and remove before freezing to stop further deteriation. Maybe state this more on Web page”

“My six lots of ingredients came whilst I was away for a week... my Son did not realise they needed to be refrigerated. When I got home, saw they had been sitting in the box on my stairs for a week, (all my Sons had stepped over them numerous times each day!?)... I thought I would have to throw it all away. To my surprise all was good, which I think reflects on just how fresh, the fresh ingredients are in The Tastesmiths range... I made all six curry’s over the following days, we all agreed, they were delicious! I will definitely be ordering more, to work our way through the different choices of meals!!”

“Tastesmiths meals are great, the instructions are easy to follow, everything you need to make an authentic curry is provided, its a great feeling preparing and cooking your own curry instead of buying a takeaway, very satisfying sitting down to eat knowing you've done this yourself from scratch.”

“Not really impressed. Most dishes were too similar in taste. Freezing the packs wasn't successful because the garlic and ginger became too watery on defrosting.”

Hi Aidan, sorry to hear about your experience with us, we suggest when freezing the kits that they're not defrosted before use - this avoids the sogginess you found.

“Very pleased with how easy the process was, the food I have cooked has been delicious. The best thing for me is that I live in Menorca and it is difficult to buy certain herbs and spices which is why Tastesmiths is perfect for me. I also think this would make a great Christmas present”

“Having been recommended to me I thought I would try Tastesmiths, but wasn’t expecting much. I couldn’t have been more wrong. We have now tried all of the range. They are brilliant- the tastes are so authentic. In the past I made curry’s from scratch, but these are different, no need to approximate measures or improvise on alternate ingredients. The delivery is always quick which is an added bonus, but we now keep a stock in the freezer. Can’t recommend highly enough.”
