Company details

  1. Food Producer

Written by the company

Niyi grew up in Nigeria where spice and intense flavours were an intricate part of his childhood. After relocating to England, he found himself quite the novice in the kitchen, unable to match the level of flavour or spice his palate was used to. Years later, while travelling, Niyi worked with a chef who educated him on exploring unique new ways to fuse flavours from his multi-cultural upbringing together, thus the plan for Novice Kitchen was cooked up. At Novice Kitchen, we deeply understand the source (and the sauce). The appreciation of an ingredient has the power to transform a dish into a rich story. Each ingredient used is personally sourced at a local market. With a key focus on sustainability, Novice Kitchen gives back, a small percentage of our sales go to an organisation focusing on developing sustainable, affordable and scalable methods of food production, to keep the stories going. The brands unique blend of food, culture, simplicity and suave speak to a cohort of kitchen novices, giving them the ingredients to empower themselves in the kitchen and beyond.

Best Chilli oil on the market

So I saw this company advertising on my Instagram and thought the products looked really good. I bought the bundle which includes the hot sauce, the sichuan chilli oil and the Balinese jam. Let me tell you I’ve tried a whole bunch of different chilli oils and this one is by far the best I’ve tasted. The flavour is immense and not just pure chilli heat it’s got a really complex flavour, you’ll be asking for a bigger jar that’s for sure :) The tropical heat hot sauce is delicious, again it’s not too spicy and has a lovely fruity flavour it’s certainly not going to blow your head off. The Balinese jam is something I’ve never even heard of but again the taste is exceptional, it’s got a really savoury flavour that goes perfect with chicken or any other meat or veggies to be honest. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from here, I’ve just made my second order as I’ve run out of the Sichuan chilli oil already.

Seriously impressed with these sauces

As a previous condiment queen, I've replaced sugary/ artificial sauces with Novice Kitchen's natural but fiery sauces. Great healthy addition to add flavour & a kick to most meals - obsessed!

You can't enjoy a meal without Novice Kitchen

You can't enjoy a meal without Novice Kitchen! The flavours are seriously delicious, and their range of products complements every dish, taking even the simplest foods to the next level. Lately, we've been obsessed with Tropical Heat over avocados – it's fantastic. I love the quality of the ingredients; you can be confident that you're not consuming anything artificial. Plus, the packaging is stunning and adds a great touch to my kitchen. Can't wait to see what they come up with next!

I booked a Supper Club with Novice Kitchen for my work. They organised a beautiful venue on the river with exquisite food. I would very much recommend for any corporate businesses looking to do functions that are a little bit different and offer an intimate feel where the chef cooking is with you in the same room! 10/10
