This weekend calls for breakfast in bed, and boy do we have options. Pancakes with syrup or maple blueberry drizzle? Easy baked casserole? Maple cinnamon rolls? Eggs & bacon, maybe with a sweet potato hash? English muffins with nut butter and jelly? Skyr with great granola? Whether you're spoiling yourself or someone else, enjoy the best of New England on your plate.
Drawing on the rich history of Spanish and Portuguese canning, NH native Keper Connell founded Gulf of Maine Conservas to make bluefin tuna more accessible (and delicious). He serves on the board of directors of The American Bluefin Tuna Association and is dedicated to the sustainability of bluefin tuna fishery. Tinned bluefin from Gulf of Maine is definitely not your average canned tuna; bluefin is darker, meatier, and known for its melt-in-your-mouth texture. Sustainably fished (via rod and reel, by Keper), then handpacked in high quality olive oil, this is delicious, dialed-up tuna. Gulf of Maine Conservas also preserves and enhances the rich, umami flavor of freshwater, sustainably farmed eel by smoking the meat over alder wood, then canning in California olive oil. This delicacy is something like sea bacon - salty and delectable - and deserves a spot on any charcuterie board or luxe sandwich.
V Smiley delivered a gorgeous nectarine plum & cherry conserve and some strawberry rosemary blackcurrant honey jam this week. Also just in are blackberry and wild blueberry jams from Side Hill Farm, so fire up the toaster!
With the warmer weather comes the chance for more outdoor adventures… or chores. Power up with some energy bars that dedicate a percentage of profits to gorilla conservation. Garuka is roughly translated from Kinyarwanda as “Return Well”. When you choose to pick up a Garuka bar to return your energy, you’re also supporting a cause: the future of the mountain gorilla. Pack a bar full of banana, acai & coconut, or one featuring red walnuts and raw honey next time you head out.
Because of the size of their oven, and baking schedule, only customers who receive deliveries later in the week are able to enjoy Rise Up's incredible rye a sourdough breads. We are very excited to have their focaccias and cinnamon rolls available now, so that everyone has a chance to enjoy their incredible skill.
Rise Up Bakery makes handcrafted sourdough breads using long cold fermentation and bakes them in a century old wood fired oven. They use a rye and wheat starter that originates from the Carpathian Mountains of Western Ukraine. This starter comes from high elevation and is a combination of cold spring water, flour and air filled with yeast from the local conifer trees which makes it unique. Creation of a loaf takes 48 hours from inception; flavor, digestibility and shelf life are refelected in the final product.
Owners Jim and Larissa Haas recently won a statewide award from the Vermont Historical Society for their work in bringing back to life the Union Cooperative Bakery, now their own Rise Up Bakery. This tiny old brick building was built in 1913, and was an important wood fired bakery for Barre, its labor movement, and local communities from 1913 to early 1940s.
