Fennel Pollen Hunter
Last chance to get wild Umbrian Fennel Pollen
The history of magical dust is a long and secret story that is rarely shared amongst mere mortals.
This secret is not in the history books but is, in fact, shared in code via the secret communicator called children’s stories.
Our story starts here in the ancient library of Britain. We had gone to look for Shakespeare, but instead we found a guy named Benedict, an actor in disguise as Hamlet, who knew of the origins we seeked.
He spoke to us in iambic pentameter about fairy & pixie dust and the importance of the Leprechaun’s pot of gold. He said that the original origins of the secret dust comes from Italy in Umbria and that a special man named Eugenio had carried on and had passed on the secret of capturing this pot of gold, known commonly as Wild Umbrian Fennel Pollen, with love to his son, Giuseppe.
The secret lies in the gathering of the pollen, he continued. Selecting only the best and the brightest yellow amongst all the flora in the summer and carefully shaking the florets to relieve and capture just the pollen. It is then dried in the shade, away from the harshness of the God Helios. It is this attention to the process and detail that makes this the very best.
The process takes an enormous amount of time and patience is required. The result is indeed the fairy dust we seek. This Wild Umbrian Fennel Pollen is like no other on the planet. Its bright yellow coloring is created by microscopic little angels, mimicking a flower.
And like the magical stories we have read it only takes a tiny dusting to change our palates forever! Transforming fowl or fish, or a touch to a green vegetable it is amazing what this secret mythical “dust" can do! You can feel the heartbeat of the pixie in every bite!
There is 1/50th the amount to offer this year compared to previous.
We remain optimistic that perhaps in the future we will be able to have this level of quality of Wild Italian Umbrian Fennel Pollen again.
As of today, this is expected to be our very last shipment from Giuseppe and his dad, Eugenio, from the hills and valleys of Umbria.

It's Baking Season!
Flours of all kinds make for interesting bread.
As we mix it up in the kitchen, sifting new flours into recipes makes for a great switch on old favorites. Because the differences of the flours, like hardness and softness, grains and grind, makes for some really interesting twists in the final mouth feel. Using emmer/farro flour (Triticum dicoccum) for instance, in a scone, means less gluten which changes the composition, making a crumbly, yummy mess, that is not dry or hard.
Or, when you use double "zero" flour to make pizza dough or pasta, just the finer grind makes for a nicer "feel". Good bite and not as much chew when the "00" is made from durum wheat. Think holiday breads as you pick your flours.
How about a garbanzo flour and ginger cake to bake.
Make a barley flour crust for your next Apple Pie or Pear tart.
It's still early, but the bakers are baking, and ingredients are jumping off the shelves.
Order early so you have it at-the-ready, for when inspiration inspires you, you can make soup, bake a cake, roll out some pasta, or have a pie. Nothing says love like a baked good.

Honey from the World's Flowers!
The sweetness of the honey bee!
With all the controversy surrounding honey and honey bees these days, it is good to be suspect of any honey you find for sale in the market. With all the questions around colony collapse, why bees all over the world are dying in droves and not returning to their hives, and why predators are not bingeing on the abandoned honey, one wonders yet again about the future of food.
Without bees to pollinate our crops, perhaps some 60% of all the food we eat could be in jeopardy!
With all the fake, watered down, chemical- and antibiotic-laced honey on the market, it is very hard to know which honey is good and which is not.
We have always looked for great honey. In fact, the Honey Category has always been one of Eliza's favorites. She spends a lot of time trying and looking for the most interesting, unique and pure honeys available from all over the world. Not only do the medicinal qualities and health benefits of honey pique her interest, but what flora and fauna the bees live off of and how that impacts the taste of the honey is also a big focus.
With over 40 different honeys, there should be one that you would want to help make the most of this time of year!
Honey! It's that time of Year to have honey on hand!
