It’s easy to fall into cooking ruts — we’ve all found ourselves making the same meals over and over again but seriously sacrificing flavor. That’s where Omsom comes in handy, an editor-loved Asian pantry brand that’s our repeat winner of the best meal starter kit on the annual Kitchn Essentials: Grocery Edition list. Founders Vanessa and Kim Pham, daughters of Vietnamese refugees and first-generation Vietnamese-Americans, took the internet by storm when Omsom hit the scene two years ago, selling out several times and accruing waitlists of over 2,000 people. The way Omsom works is that they sell starter sets that incorporate all the sauces, aromatics, and seasonings needed for a huge variety of East and Southeast Asian recipes. Each time I use an Omsom starter set, I’m blown away by the flavor — and I love that I can make a dinner that tastes restaurant-quality with little effort on my part.

Whether you’re already a huge fan or looking to try it out, you’ll be happy to hear that Omsom is holding a huge sitewide fall sale. Starting today, Sep. 22, through Sep. 25, you can take 15 percent off your entire order with the code FALLINTOFLAVOR. Ahead, we’ve rounded up all the best bundles that Omsom has to offer so you can make the most of this special rare sale!
