My brother asked me for a shopping list for his new bachelor pantry, so I'm stashing it here.



Olive oil (of course)
Red wine vinegar
GOOD balsamic -- expect to pay $25-35 for a small (6-8oz) bottle, but a little goes a long way
Small pearl couscous
Whatever other pasta you like, preferably whole grain or lentil
Jarred artechokes/artechoke hearts (you do not want to mess around with fresh)
Anchovies in olive oil
Canned Tuna in olive oil (drain into the trash, not down the drain)
Almonds
Walnuts
Lentils
Canned chickpeas
Rice, brown and white
Capers
Sardines
Walnuts
Pepitas (green pumpkin seeds)
Olives
Cannelini beans (canned)
Tahini
Canned tomatoes, crushed, whole, paste, I recommend San Marzano (variety, not brand name)
Quinoa if you like quinoa
Honey
Garlic
Yellow onions
Pomegranate molasses
Harissa
Lemon juice


Herbs and spices, dried:
Oregano
Basil
Thyme
Rosemary
Cumin
Smoked paprika
Red pepper flakes
Coriander
Cinnamon
Mint
Parsley
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Lemon pepper
freshly ground black pepper
Sea salt (I prefer flake sea salt to fine ground, it works better for recipes that call for kosher)
