Oliviers & Co Salt & Herb Mix for Pasta and Salads by Michelin Chef Jean-Marie Meulien

Tasting Notes of the Curator

Oliviers & Co’s Salt & Herb Mix for Pasta & Salads is designed to bring immediate Mediterranean character to simple dishes with minimal effort. Developed by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Marie Meulien, the blend combines sea salt with aromatic herbs and vegetables to create a seasoning that feels both practical and refined.

At the center of the profile is tomato — often called the queen of the kitchen garden — bringing savory sweetness, brightness, and gentle acidity that gives the blend its lively depth. Marjoram, cultivated since Antiquity and prized throughout Mediterranean cuisine, adds warm herbal complexity with soft floral and slightly peppery undertones.

Chives and onion complete the profile with delicate savory sharpness and aromatic freshness, creating a blend that feels rounded and versatile without becoming overpowering. The result is clean, herbaceous, and deeply food-friendly — equally suited for bright vinaigrettes, warm pasta dishes, or fresh summer salads.

Unlike heavier spice blends, this seasoning remains elegant and balanced, enhancing dishes rather than masking their ingredients. It is the kind of pantry staple that quietly simplifies cooking while still delivering restaurant-style flavor.

Pairings and Suggestions

• Sprinkle directly over pasta, green salads, or grain bowls.
• Use as a seasoning base for vinaigrettes and salad dressings.
• Excellent mixed into olive oil for quick pasta sauces.
• Pair with roasted vegetables, mozzarella, or burrata.
• Add to tomato salads or Mediterranean-inspired dishes.
• Use to season focaccia, grilled bread, or warm legumes.

For a simple Mediterranean pasta, toss warm pasta with olive oil, Parmesan, and the seasoning blend for an effortless herb-forward finish.
