Provence d’Antan organic spice blends are imagined to bring character to everyday recipes as well as generous shared tables. Herbes de Provence, warm spices, Mediterranean notes or more daring compositions: each blend plays with the balance of flavours, textures and intensities.
Elaborated with care in France from ingredients selected with high standards, our blends accompany vegetables, meats, fish, marinades, sauces and vegetarian recipes. An invitation to cook simply, to experiment and to rediscover on the plate that generous, sun-filled spirit that makes Provençal cuisine so distinctive.
For us, a spice blend is first and foremost a composition.
As in herbalism, each ingredient has its own personality: some bring warmth, others freshness, a botanical touch, a woody note or a more pronounced intensity.
Our work consists of finding the right balance so that the ingredients respond to one another without one overpowering the others.
Inspired by Provence, the Mediterranean and world cuisines, our compositions make it possible to travel in just a few pinches, while remaining simple to use every day.
For roasted vegetables, gratins and plant-based preparations, choose herbaceous and Mediterranean compositions.
For meats and grilled dishes, choose more intense blends capable of accompanying cooking.
For fish, prefer fresher and more delicate pairings.
For marinades, look for a blend expressive enough to flavour the whole preparation.
Provençal cooking: botanical and Mediterranean compositions.
World cuisine: more spiced and generous blends.
Barbecue and plancha: blends with a more pronounced character.
Vegetarian cooking: spices make it easy to bring relief to vegetables, cereals and pulses.
Start with a small quantity. Spices should accompany the ingredient rather than mask its taste.
This is particularly important with powerful spices: a few pinches can be enough to completely transform a recipe.
There is no single way to use spices.
Before cooking, they can be incorporated into a marinade with a drizzle of olive oil.
During cooking, they flavour sauces, vegetables, slow-cooked dishes and oven preparations.
At the end of cooking, certain blends help preserve more freshness and taste intensity.
At the table, a pinch can simply finish a plate.
For dosage, start with around half a teaspoon for two people, then gradually adjust according to the blend and your preferences.
An individual spice allows you to work precisely with one flavour. A spice blend immediately offers a balanced composition and saves time in the kitchen.
Both approaches are complementary.
A blend is particularly interesting for everyday recipes: just a few simple gestures are enough to give a different identity to roasted vegetables, a marinade, a tomato sauce or a cereal-based dish.
Oven-roasted vegetables
A drizzle of olive oil, a few pinches of spices and slow cooking until the vegetables become lightly caramelised.
Marinade for barbecue or plancha
Mix the spices with olive oil before coating the ingredients.
Provençal potatoes
Add your blend before oven cooking to delicately flavour the potatoes.
Homemade tomato sauce
A small quantity is enough to bring greater depth to a slow-cooked sauce.
Plant-based cooking
Chickpeas, lentils, courgettes, aubergines and squash are particularly well suited to spiced compositions.
Spices appreciate dry, cool places protected from light.
After each use, carefully close the container and avoid placing it directly above a pan producing steam. Humidity can alter the texture and taste qualities of the blend.
Good storage helps preserve the full personality of your spices for longer.
The notion of French origin should be distinguished from the place of elaboration.
Some aromatic plants are closely linked to French and Mediterranean terroirs, while certain spices naturally grow in other climates.
Provence d’Antan therefore selects its ingredients according to their nature, quality and growing terroirs. Our blends are then elaborated with care in France.
This approach allows us to combine French know-how, Provençal inspiration and the botanical richness of different regions of the world.
“Made in France spice blend” is a formulation frequently searched for online. However, we prefer to be more precise about what we do: Provence d’Antan blends are elaborated with care in France.
This does not mean that each of the spices composing them is grown in France. Their provenance depends on their terroir and natural growing conditions.
Spices should be used in suitable quantities as part of a varied and balanced diet.
Certain spices or plants may require particular precautions during pregnancy or breastfeeding, in cases of medical treatment or individual sensitivity. People with allergies should also carefully consult the list of ingredients and any possible trace information.
In case of doubt regarding the regular consumption of a particular plant or spice, seek advice from a healthcare professional.
Provence d’Antan organic spice blends are elaborated in France to accompany everyday recipes with taste, colour and creativity. Vegetables, grilled dishes, sauces, marinades, slow-cooked dishes or vegetarian cooking: each blend makes it possible to add a flavourful touch to your preparations, depending on the desired intensity and profile.
A spice blend is a composition combining several spices, herbs, seeds or condiments in order to create a ready-to-use flavour balance. It makes it easy to season everyday dishes without having to dose each ingredient separately.

A single spice corresponds to one ingredient, such as turmeric, cumin, paprika, cinnamon or ginger.
A spice blend combines several ingredients to create a more complete flavour profile. It may be designed for a specific use, such as grilled dishes, vegetables, slow-cooked dishes, marinades or Mediterranean recipes.
To choose an organic spice blend, take into account the dish you are preparing and the taste you are looking for.
For soft, family-style cooking, choose mild blends. For more expressive cooking, choose compositions based on paprika, cumin, ginger, pepper or mild chilli. For a Provençal touch, Mediterranean herbs, garlic, thyme or rosemary are particularly suitable.
For vegetables, blends based on herbs, paprika, turmeric, cumin, garlic, thyme or rosemary work very well.
They can be used on roasted vegetables, pan-fried vegetables, soup, ratatouille, oven-baked potatoes or grilled vegetables. Simply add a pinch of spices, a drizzle of olive oil and mix well before cooking.
For grilled dishes, you can choose more pronounced blends, with paprika, pepper, garlic, herbs, cumin, mild chilli or smoky notes depending on the recipes.
They can be used in a marinade or directly on meat, fish, vegetables or plant-based alternatives. A spice blend brings relief without requiring complex preparation.
Yes, spice blends are perfect for marinades.
They can be combined with olive oil, lemon, vinegar, yoghurt, honey or a sauce depending on the recipe. The marinade allows the spices to diffuse into the ingredients before cooking. It is suitable for meats, fish, vegetables, tofu, chickpeas or vegetarian recipes.
Yes, spice blends can enrich a tomato sauce, yoghurt sauce, cream sauce, vinaigrette, vegetable sauce or slow-cooked dish.
It is preferable to add them gradually, then taste before adding more. Certain spices develop their character further during cooking.
Not all spice blends are strong. Some are mild, herbaceous or warm, while others are more pronounced.
The intensity depends on the presence of pepper, chilli, ginger or more powerful spices. It is important to read the composition in order to choose a blend suited to your tastes and to the people sharing the meal.
Dosage depends on the dish, the quantity prepared and the desired intensity.
To begin with, a small pinch or half a teaspoon is often enough for a family-style preparation. You can always adjust afterwards. It is better to add spices gradually rather than using too much from the start.
Spices can be added before cooking, during cooking or as a finishing touch, depending on the desired result.
Before cooking, they blend with the ingredients and develop a more rounded intensity. At the end of cooking, they retain more freshness and relief. For slow-cooked dishes, it is often interesting to add them at the beginning, then adjust at the end.
Yes, spice blends are very well suited to vegetarian cooking.
They make it possible to bring flavour to vegetables, cereals, pulses, eggs, sauces, gratins, soups, plant-based curries or tofu-based dishes. They are particularly useful for transforming simple ingredients into more generous and expressive dishes.
Yes, spice blends can be used every day to vary recipes without changing your entire way of cooking.
The same base of vegetables, rice, pasta or pulses can take on a Mediterranean, oriental, spiced or more herbaceous direction depending on the blend chosen. It is a simple solution for cooking with more creativity.
Spice blends should be stored in a dry place, away from light, heat and humidity.
It is recommended to close the sachet or jar properly after each use. To preserve their intensity, avoid placing them near a hob, a sunny window or a source of steam.
It depends on the recipes. Some spice blends contain salt, while others do not.
It is therefore important to check the composition before use. If the blend already contains salt, adjust the seasoning of the dish to avoid over-salting. If the blend does not contain any, you can salt separately according to your taste.
Choosing Provence d’Antan spice blends means favouring organic compositions elaborated in France, designed to accompany simple, generous and creative cooking.
It also means choosing a house attentive to ingredient quality, respect for taste, respect for the environment and fair remuneration for producers as well as partners throughout the supply chain, thanks to internal charters followed with care and high standards.
