NEW! Tutto Porchetta
A collaboration between Burlap & Barrel and The Fatted Calf brings us this spice blend of fennel, garlic, herbs, and more, based on the flavors in Italian classic porchetta.
From Burlap & Barrel: "Traditionally used as a dry rub for pork, this savory, herbaceous butcher's blend is delectable on chicken, quail, lamb, turkey and duck, or mixed with ground meat for homemade sausage. Use it on roasted vegetables, mushrooms or beans. Stir into soups or sauces, sprinkle over goat cheese or mix with olive oil and lemon for a dressing, marinade or dip."
Ingredients: Lucknow fennel, black pepper, rosemary, oregano buds, garlic, coriander, allspice, red jalapeño chili

Wild Mountain Cumin
One quick taste of this unique cumin and you’ll see why we are obsessed. We don’t want to oversell it, but this varietal (Bunium persicum) is really different from common cumin (Cuminum cyminum).
You probably have favorite ways to incorporate cumin into your cooking, but if you need some inspiration: add it to chili, sprinkle it over hummus, or use it in Spanish-inspired and Moroccan-inspired dishes.

Black Urfa Chile
This became a staff favorite at Rancho Gordo when we started sprinkling it on our Crimson Popping Corn. It's slightly spicy with tart, raisiny notes, and has been described as similar to Aleppo pepper. One staff member exclaimed, "This tastes like tamarind!" All we know is all of a sudden, we can't live without it.
From Burlap & Barrel: "It's delicious on kebabs and other grilled meats and veggies, cooked into stews and chilis, in salad dressings, sprinkled on fluffy scrambled eggs, and even mixed into brownies and other chocolate desserts for a little extra depth and a hint of heat."

From Burlap & Barrel: "It has a sweet, floral flavor without the metallic bitterness found in lower quality turmeric, and is perfect for both sweet and savory applications, in curries and other dishes as well as in turmeric teas and lattes."

You thought you knew cumin
This stuff is heavenly... there is no other word for it. It will spoil you forever... there is no going back to common cumin after you have had a taste of this.

Transcendent
When you taste a dish and it is missing something but you cannot figure out what it is? This is what it is missing. This cumin simply transcends. I seriously don't know why I used the store brought, ground imitation for so long. You don't even need that much to transform a recipe and if you grind it a little you can add it as a garnish to give a tasty presentation.

Sometimes I just open the jar for the scent
Yes, makes the most amazing midnight black beans (a household staple), gorgeous on pork though we are largely veg these days. But I find myself going to the jar just to clear my mind and take me to far away places. Remarkable. I only have half a jar left so please get more soon?

Incredible flavor
I love this cinnamon! It has a smooth and sweet flavor. I compared it with a Saigon cinnamon (grown in Vietnam) I just bought from a spice shop while on vacation and Burlap and Barrel’s blows it away. Grant it they are different in type and origin but still, I’m so glad I purchased this. I sprinkle it on my coffee, oatmeal, cereal, in smoothies and in baking. It’s beautiful in smell and taste but not overpowering.

The Rancho Gordo Story
You Can Blame it All on the Dutch
I was shopping one August for tomatoes and, despite Napa being one of the world's most magnificent agricultural regions, all the tomatoes were from a hothouse in Holland! Worse, they were hard and pale pink instead of the ripe tomatoes I was craving. I started to grow my own tomatoes and this eventually led to beans.
My first harvested heirloom bean was Rio Zape. They were pretty and easy to grow but I had no idea what to expect when I cooked them. They were similar to the pintos I liked but there was so much more going on. Hints of chocolate and coffee mixed with an earthy texture made my head spin. I was blown away by Rio Zape and the other heirloom beans I was growing, but also really confused why they were such a big secret. I took the beans to the farmers market, organizing things on my kitchen table. Soon there was a warehouse, followed by more markets and mail order. It seems we had struck a nerve. People agreed that heirloom beans were worth saving, growing and cooking. Currently our warehouse, a retail shop, and offices are in Napa, California, and a stop here is part of many tours of the wine country.
All of my agricultural pursuits have been based on being someone who likes to cook but gets frustrated by the lack of ingredients, especially those that are native to the Americas. One of the things that originally drew me to beans was the fact that they are indigenous to the Americas. It seems to me these indigenous ingredients should be familiar, if not common. American cuisine is re-inventing itself and I'd love to include ingredients, traditions and recipes from north and south of the border as part of the equation. I love the concept of The Americas. I feel as if it's just as important as the European heritage many of us share.
