Item Highlights
French Breakfast Radishes
French breakfast radishes are small, cylindrical radishes, with striking red bodies and crisp white points, and are a staple in French cuisine. Their flavor is mild and slightly peppery, offering a perfect balance for those who find the sharpness of regular radishes overwhelming. Slice them thinly and add them to salads for a pop of color and crunch, or serve them alongside cheese and charcuterie for a light and refreshing accompaniment. They can even be roasted or pickled to bring out different aspects of their flavor profile.
Alain Gatza Idiazabal
Alain Gatza Idiazabal is a name that resonates deeply within the world of artisanal cheeses, particularly for connoisseurs of Spain’s rich culinary heritage. This exceptional cheese, produced in the Basque and Navarre regions, is named after a small village in the Basque Country, is crafted from the raw milk of Latxa or Carranzana sheep, native to the region. The result is a cheese with a firm texture and a robust, nutty flavor, often carrying hints of smokiness. Its rich, earthy flavor complements the sweetness of fruits like quince paste or figs, while also standing up well to robust wines such as Rioja or a crisp, dry Txakoli.
Jasper Hill Farms Calderwood
Calderwood is a raw cow’s milk cheese that starts its journey as Jasper Hill’s flagship Alpine-style cheese, Alpha Tolman. However, what sets Calderwood apart is its distinctive aging process. After initial aging, the wheels are coated in a thick layer of finely chopped hay sourced from Jasper Hill’s own fields. The result is a firm, golden-hued cheese with a complex flavor profile that evolves with each bite. Calderwood is nutty and savory with a sweet, caramelized finish, complemented by the gentle herbal notes from the hay.
Fatworks Goose Fat
Goose fat has been a staple in European kitchens for centuries, renowned for its ability to elevate dishes with its deep, savory flavor. Unlike many other cooking fats, goose fat has a high smoke point, making it ideal for roasting, frying, and sautéing. Sourced from pasture-raised geese, this premium cooking fat is prized for its rich flavor, versatility, and health benefits. Whether you’re crisping up potatoes to perfection, browning meats, or adding a luxurious touch to vegetables, Fatworks Goose Fat delivers a golden finish that enhances the taste of any dish.
Amano Citrus Melange A Trois 63%
Amano Artisan Chocolate is known for its dedication to crafting exceptional, small-batch chocolate, as is their Citrus Mélange A Trois 63%. The “Mélange A Trois” in the name refers to the harmonious blend of three distinct citrus fruits—orange, lemon, and lime—each contributing its own unique character to the chocolate. Citrus Mélange A Trois 63% pairs wonderfully with various beverages, including a crisp white wine, a citrusy cocktail, or a cup of fine coffee, enhancing the tasting experience with its bright and complex flavor profile.
