Zing Pantry Shortcuts Reviews

4.4

Zing Pantry Shortcuts proves effective: reviewers say the Lava and other condiments reliably add savory depth and balanced heat to eggs, noodles, rice and proteins, though some find the flavors milder or less textured than expected. Reviews praise versatile, aromatic sauces (hot honey, chili crisp, Hakka-ish) that boost simple meals, but note occasional weak spice, reduced crispiness, and confusing packaging or leakage—helpful if you want a pantry shortcut that enhances dishes without overpowering them.

    I recently bought their Hot Honey and I have been really loving it! A little goes a long way and its super lovely to drizzle on top of your meals! (So far have had it on top pf my peanut butter banana english muffin for breakfast, and on a baked sweet potato with walnuts and goat cheese). Not as spicy as I thought it was going to be, and kinda thankful for that lol!

    I got to try their Test Kitchen: Lava flavor through Thingdrop! The flavor was very rich and aromatic! Especially loved how it wasn't super spicy right off the bat so heat level could be more controlled. I used about a teaspoon over some dumplings and it added so much more flavor and layers to every bite!

    I really liked Lava and the complexity of the flavor. However, because I'm not familiar with the sauce this was based on, I need ideas for how to use it! The brussel sprouts recipe on Zing's website is awesome with Lava! I really like the packaging as well.

    Part of the Thingdrop and tried their experiment sauce "Lava". I tried this on some leftover pasta salad and thought it was pretty good! Decent heat and texture overall. It reminds me of ginisang bagoong a bit without the shrimp flavor, for the Filipino people who know!

    The QR code didn't scan to anywhere, leaving me slightly worried if someone were to have an allergy and not know at least some of the ingredients in this. I also found the box to be slightly tough to open because of the lip and a lot of tape.
