Item Highlights

Okra

Okra is the seed pod of the Abelmoschus esculentus plant. It’s filled with tiny white seeds and is sometimes called lady’s fingers due to its long, slender, tubelike shape. Native to Ethiopia, okra was brought to North America by enslaved people and settlers when they arrived centuries ago. The light green seed pods are cooked whole or sliced, so preparation is extremely easy, and it can be cooked in so many ways. However, choosing the right cooking method, such as frying, grilling, sautéeing, and pan-roasting, can reduce or prevent it from becoming slimy. Use in soups or stews to act as a natural thickener or sautee and allow the okra to soak up whatever flavors you give it!

Cabot Clothbound

Clothbound is an approachable but complex natural-rind, bandaged cheddar with a crumbly texture and nutty aroma. The flavor is deeply savory and slightly tangy with caramel sweetness to the finish. Clothbound has a signature tang and caramel nuttiness with a rustic crystalline texture that becomes creamy on the palate. This savory-sweet balance of flavor makes a perfect match for charcuterie, apple jelly, or a rich chestnut honey. Pair with an off-dry sparkling apple cider, hoppy ale, or an oaked Cabernet Sauvignon. Clothbound is an award winning cheese, including American Cheese Society’s 2006 Best in Show.

Gold Creek Smoked Cheddar

This Smoked Cheddar comes from Gold Creek Farms in Kamas, UT. For this cheese the awards just keep on coming! The American Cheese Society and World Championship Cheese Competition judges have been consistently impressed by this cheddar. For three years in a row, this cheese has won awards. Its bold flavor wakes up any dish: eggs, burger, sandwich. A stout beer is in order for this bold cheese!

Wild Mackerel in Olive Oil 

Harvested using a sustainable purse seine fishing method out of the Northern Atlantic, this delicious ocean fish is hand skinned and de-boned. It is then cooked in a high quality olive oil for maximum taste and freshness.This flavorful fish makes the perfect addition to any tin fish or charcuterie board! Pair with crunch crostini to compliment the natural, deep flavors of the mackerel.
