Polenta Seasoning – because simple cooking deserves to taste great. This blend turns classic polenta into a Mediterranean experience full of herbal aroma, spice and fine heat. Sage, parsley, wild garlic and lemon zest bring freshness, while cayenne pepper and mace provide warmth and depth. That turns a plain side dish into a dish that delights – whether creamy, fried or grilled.

My tip: Add the seasoning to the polenta while cooking – that way the herbs and spices develop ideally. Briefly seared or grilled, fine roasted aromas emerge that go perfectly with the Mediterranean herb spice.
Origin & Story
Polenta has its origins in northern Italian and Ticino cooking and was a staple food of rural cuisine for centuries. Originally cooked simply from cornmeal, water and salt, polenta was traditionally refined with regional herbs and spices to create flavour and variety. Inspired by these regional traditions, I developed a spice blend that reflects exactly this authenticity while also bringing a modern, aromatic note.
Highlights
This finely balanced blend combines Mediterranean herbs such as sage, parsley, chives, wild garlic and thyme with lemon zest and cayenne pepper (approx. 15,000 SHU = medium heat). Complemented by the warm spice of mace (nutmeg flower), aromatic coriander and freshly ground Malabar pepper, a harmonious overall picture emerges, ideal for preparing an aromatic, spicy polenta. The exact recipe remains my secret.
Quality
All ingredients are mixed single-batch, fresh and exclusively by hand. I use exclusively all-natural ingredients – completely free of additives, technical aids, artificial flavourings or anti-caking agents.
The best spices have always inspired me to create new dishes. Only the best is good enough to reach the very top – for you, in your kitchen. 100% natural. Just the way I use it myself, every day.
Tip from Tobias Funke
Add the spice blend directly to the polenta while cooking so the herbs and spices can develop their aromas ideally. Before serving, I recommend briefly searing or grilling the polenta – this develops wonderful roasted aromas that harmonise perfectly with the herb spice.
