The Best Black Friday Sales on Fancy Pantry Brands

Olive oil has never been cooler, and while I am a die-hard fan of certain heritage brands, I also love what newer players like Brightland are bringing to the table. This duo of cold-pressed California EVOO is sourced from small, family-operated farms, made without artificial fillers or preservatives, and packaged in recyclable, UV-protected glass bottles. This barbershop quartet of olive oils is infused with garlic, lemon, basil, and (my personal favorite) chili peppers for all of your dipping and drizzling needs.

Family-owned and operated in the Aegean, Heraclea sure does make a handsome bottle of olive oil. This is a tasty, light dipping EVOO that is made sans GMOs, and thoughtfully packaged in a UV-protected glass bottle to preserve the flavor integrity of your liquid gold.

Fishwife is offering 20 percent off its delectable, aesthetically-packaged anchovies, sardines, and more this Black Friday. This gift set includes a marquée-worthy lineup of tinned smoked salmon, sardines in hot pepper, slow smoked mackerel, and more. There’s even a charming pair of silver-colored tinned fish tongs.

Made in collaboration Phở Bắc, which is touted as Seattle’s first pho shop, MìLà’s beef soup dumplings really hit the spot after a long day of schlepping around the city. They’re ready in under 12 minutes, and are filled with locally-sourced ground beef and (most importantly to me) plenty of onions and scallions. — FK

For the uninitiated, Bokksu is a site offering an eclectic array of Japanese snack box subscriptions, and it is having a big 25 percent off Black Friday sale with the code BLACKFRI25. This holiday season, it has also blessed us with one of the coolest (and tastiest) advent calendars on the market: a winter wonderland-themed advent calendar filled with 17 different snacks and eight different collectibles. If the site’s smorgasbord of pickled ginger crackers and Hello Kitty jellies is anything to go by, the round-up sure will be delicious. — FK

Lata is home to all kinds of delicious Spanish and Portuguese imported tinned fish and seafood, including these very tasty, artfully packaged Nuri sardines. The aesthetic little tin is so nice to look at, you can just slap a bow on it and call it a day.

Last year, I successfully gifted Yun Hai’s dried fruit collection to a happy recipient, so this year I’m particularly excited about its newest product offering: a set of fruit jams made in collaboration with Taipei jam makers Dolly and Chin. (Yun Hai is a Taiwanese general store and shoppy shop in Brooklyn.) Through Cyber Monday, everything on its site is 15 percent off with the code WAIWANWEI15. — ED

“Now I understand why kingdoms fought wars over salt” was my first reaction to Maldon’s sea salt. The flaky crystals melt on your tongue with just the right amount of zing, and transform even my most breakfasts and chocolate chip cookies into a gourmet dining experience. I can think of no greater holiday gift than a literal bucket of the stuff.

Remember when Spicewalla collaborated with T-Pain on a very delicious — and dare I say, heartfelt — barbeque seasoning collection last year? (This bestselling sauce on the site, for example, benefits folks impacted by hurricanes Helene and Milton.) That’s just one of the reasons why Spicewalla stays top of mind for me when my spice cupboard starts looking sparse; I also like the modular shape and bright colors of the containers, organization-wise. This 10-pack unites many of its signature blends, including piri piri, ranch seasoning, garam masala, a blend called “Mom’s Taco Seasoning” that I put on almost everything, and more.

Sometimes, the plight of buying (and rebuying) those glass McCormick salt and pepper mills feels Sysphean. Thankfully, the cycle can be forever disrupted with an investment in a solid pepper and salt mill, as well as some flavorful salt and pepper offerings from the good folks at Jacobsen Salt Co. This bundle — which unites the class of Peugeot with the trusted salts and peppers of Jacobsen Salt Co. — would impress even my most discerning Wedgewood-collecting aunt.

Fly By Jing’s Sichuan chili crisp is delicious on everything from eggs to ice cream, which is probably why the brand started making it in an extra-large jar.

Boon’s chili oil is made out of anchovies, garlic, and chile de árbol, which gives it some layered flavors with the kind of sharp heat I crave on my stir fries, eggs, and almost everything else.

One of the biggest culinary flexes you can have is always having yuzu juice stocked in the fridge. Use it for cocktails, to make curds and tarts, or to toss into comforting bowls of soba this winter. Right now, use the code YUZU24 for 24 percent off all orders. — KT

A very classy stocking-stuffer. Tilden’s non-alcoholic spirits include the citrusy, slightly smoky Tandem (which makes for a delicious N/A hot toddy) and the more herbaceous and crisp Lacewing (so refreshing on the rocks), and you can scoop both on sale this Black Friday.

I live with a sparkling water addict: There’s always a case of something bubbly lying afoot in the kitchen, and we’ve been meaning to try the Poppi brand ever since my Eater colleague recommended them — particularly the raspberry-rose flavor — in a buying guide to nonalcoholic fancy sodas earlier this year. — ED

I always try and keep a canister of Illy in my pantry for visitors, because the medium Classico blend — which has subtle notes of chocolate and caramel — is such a crowd pleaser.
