  • Butter: Butter is a rich, flavorful fat derived from milk. It contains fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K2, along with healthy fatty acids, serving as an energy source. It's easily digestible. Butter enhances the taste of meals and rice dishes, is spread on bread, or used in sauces. It's indispensable for breakfast tables and various recipes.
  • Flour: Flour is a fundamental foodstuff obtained by grinding grains. It provides our body with a long-lasting energy source, especially through complex carbohydrates. Varieties like whole wheat flour, thanks to their high fiber content, support digestive health, provide a feeling of fullness, and help stabilize blood sugar levels. It also contains essential B vitamins (especially B1, B3, B9) and important minerals such as iron and magnesium, which are crucial for nervous system functions, energy production, and blood formation. It is versatile in the kitchen; forming the base for baked goods like bread and pastries when combined with milk, eggs, and yeast, while also being used to thicken sauces or create harmonious flavors with vegetables.
  • Rice: Rice is a global staple food. It provides sustained energy due to complex carbohydrates, supports metabolism with B vitamins, and is naturally gluten-free, making it ideal for those with gluten sensitivity. Especially brown rice contributes to digestive health with its fiber content. It pairs excellently with legumes like lentils and chickpeas, vegetables, and various meats. It is an indispensable part of healthy and satisfying meals.
  • Black Pepper: Black pepper, a kitchen staple, offers not just flavor but also significant health benefits. Thanks to piperine, its active compound, it boasts powerful antioxidant properties, helping to combat free radicals. It can stimulate the digestive system, enhancing nutrient absorption and notably increasing the bioavailability of curcumin found in turmeric. Additionally, it's effective in reducing gas and bloating. It also has a mild metabolism-boosting effect. With a wide range of uses from red meats to poultry, vegetable dishes to soups, it pairs excellently. It harmonizes perfectly with spices like cumin and coriander, as well as ingredients like lemon and garlic, adding depth to dishes.

  • Powdered Red Pepper: Ground Red Pepper, due to its capsaicin content, can boost metabolism and aid in fat burning. Rich in powerful antioxidants and Vitamin C, it may exhibit anti-inflammatory properties. It adds flavor to a wide range of dishes, from legumes and meat to soups and vegetable-based delights.
