New Products in July

NEW PRODUCTS in July

Pates - Oded is very excited to be working on a range or pates – the phrase “kid in a candy store” does not do him justice. Over the last few weeks he has been doing some experimenting - chicken liver, vegetable, country and a game pate – the response has been very positive at the shop as well as the Earth Fair and Stellenbosch markets. We hope to have the pates at all of our markets in the future – for the time being, whenever you see Lewis, know that he will have pate with him. They will be available in the shop all day, every day. This week Oded is working on a new game pate - a combination of venison, pork and gin marinated prunes...I am salivating already!

For the aficionadas, Oded has acquired 4 sets of lovely, fresh heifer trotters or (young cow’s feet). From it he will make two kinds of brawns – traditional Jewish patcha and a chunky English country brawn.

Preserves – Oded did a short run of a tomato and ginger jam which is all but 3 jars of selling out and will be doing a new batch for the weekend. He has also recently made a guava and vanilla jelly, which apart from tasting amazing, looks absolutely beautiful.

Desserts – we have been doing crème brulee and chocolate pots for the last couple of weeks...the response has been good enough for us to begin to expand the range. By the weekend there will be one or two flavoured desserts – orange and chilli for the chocolate and something interesting for the crème brulee. When you are in the shop on the weekend or after, don’t forget to ask.
