MORE GREAT NEW IDEAS... in the latest ForkKnifeSpoon and we hope your May was a good month. A great first Bank Holiday weekend and a mixed bag of sunshine and showers for the second made for some interesting ordering patterns. Bank Holidays are always tough and we’re grateful for your patience over both the weekends as our guys and girls had full vans and very busy roads to contend with. Alex has highlighted some of our extensive gluten-free range in this edition; an ever growing area for us and we have lots of ideas and ingredients for you. On the fresh produce side, LJ Betts are another of our local growers whose produce is delivered to you within 24 hours of picking; great quality too. Very happy to introduce Terry to you all too; we reckon most of you will have spoken to him and he’s very much part of the Turner’s furniture! Toby

NEW PRODUCT RANGE
S ALL JUICE N I E M O C ASES 6x250ml CAT +V £8.40 PER CASE The revolutionary technique of High Pressure Processing (HPP)has recently injected a new lease of life into the fresh juice market. Portuguese based company So Natural has harnessed the full power of this technology to produce a range of ‘Green Juices’ that contain 100% fresh fruit and vegetables (no water, no preservatives). If stored chilled, they also boast an impressive shelflife of 45 days from when the bottles are sealed and do not lose any of the vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, flavour, aroma or colour of the raw fruit & vegetables. Other methods such as flash heat pasteurisation usually strip a lot of this goodness out and can effect the taste and smell of juices dramatically. Available from us today in cases of 6x250ml bottles at £8.40 per case are: CARROT with apple
BEETROOT with apple, ginger and carrot
CUCUMBER & CELERY with apple, lemon and spinach
RED FRUITS with apple, blueberry, raspberry & banana
PEAR with apple
The famous cheese from HauteSavoie. This particular cheese is made by Jean-Pierre Missillier in the Alpine town of Le Grand Bornand. Fresh and clean tasting with a nutty finish, it is an essential ingredient for Tartiflette.
£18.00 per kg (min weight 450g)

GLUTEN FREE EATING INGREDIENTS
It is estimated that with 1 in 100 people being intolerant to gluten, the UK restaurant and catering industry is missing out on around £100m a year in revenue through not being able to cater for those with coeliac disease. With the Gluten-Free food market growing all the time and with more and more products becoming available here is a selection of what we can offer you if you feel now is the time to make your menus a bit more coeliac friendly.

FROM CAVE TO COAST
WOOKEY HOLE CAVE AGED CHEDDAR
DO YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE?
COASTAL CHEDDAR
We are happy to welcome two of Britain’s best loved and award winning cheddars to our product range in the form of Wookey Hole Cave Aged and Coastal Cheddar, both by Ford Farm on the Ashley Chase Estate in Dorset. Both are fine examples of great West Country Cheddar and firm favourites with us here at Turners.
WOOKEY HOLE CAVE AGED A full-bodied farmhouse cheddar that has revived the ancient art of maturing cheese in caves. It is wrapped in cloth and taken deep into the caves at Wookey Hole in the Mendip Hills to be matured for six months. The constant atmosphere of the caves allows the cheese to retain its moisture and take on a full, earthy flavour. A true celebration of traditional cheddar making techniques.
£9.92 per kg
COASTAL CHEDDAR Up there with the best mature cheddars in the world, Coastal is Ford Farm’s best selling cheese. Aged for 15 months, in which time it develops a distinctive crunch from calcium crystals that form naturally when the cheese reaches peak maturity. Rugged in texture, salty but also deliciously sweet, we challenge anyone not to fall in love with this cheddar on first taste.
INTRODUCING...
£36.70 per case of 12x360g
£8.75 per 1kg branded block (90 day shelf life)
£7.92 per kg unbranded cut (21 day shelf life)
PESTO
TERRY GRIMES
Terry is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable members of our Telesales team and has been with us just over two years. If you have ever phoned to place an order you will have probably spoken with him and so you will know just what a credit he is to our company. Always happy to help with customer queries about products, he takes an avid interest in what we sell so he can broaden his product knowledge and tries to learn something new everyday. When he gets some free time Terry loves nothing more that putting his feet up watching his beloved Liverpool or planning his next DIY project. When all the DIY is done he would love to one day go to Machu Picchu in Peru or visit Mexico. Perfect Meal? “Either a traditional roast dinner or a nice juicy steak, followed by a slice of Victoria sponge.”
with a Twist
New in to us recently from our friends at the Fresh Olive Company. A couple of variations on the traditional pesto which we think are very interesting indeed.
