Growing up in Italy, pasta was always at the heart of Marc’s meals. His Cacio e Pepe Blend captures the simple elegance of Pecorino and black pepper, creating the perfect seasoning for pasta, roasted veggies, meats, and more. 

Marc Says, "Cacio e Pepe easily elevates pastas, vegetables and fritters with cheesy complexity. Generously shake this pepper-forward Italian classic into your pasta and stir with a touch of butter to watch the flavors come alive, giving you a robust burst of just-right heat and depth.” 

Our friend Marc Murphy—chef, author, restaurateur, and TV personality—created six easy-to-use blends to bring big flavor to home cooking. Three are his Essential Blends—Riviera, Chef’s Best Friend, and Surf ‘n’ Turf—designed to make everyday dishes effortlessly delicious. The other three, including Cacio e Pepe, are inspired by the classic pasta dishes of his Italian upbringing, making it simple to bring the taste of Italy into your kitchen.

All 6 Blends:
