Showcase the fruits of spring with a Sweet Berry Tartlet

Johnsonville Italian Sausage adds new flavor to traditional dishes

Spring is such an exciting season. From the first tiny strawberries to a profusion of blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries, these sweet and colorful fruits make for a deliciously simple starring role in homemade desserts. “I live an area of California known for its abundance of fresh produce. The beginning of the berry season is always my favorite time,” says Stephanie Gallo, a third generation Gallo family member. “These tiny fruits burst with so much flavor. They are so easy to use in baked goods. Pairing them with a light bodied, sweet wine is a fantastic way to end a great meal.” Gallo Family Vineyards’ Taste of Home recipe collection has a signature Tiny Berry Tartlets recipe that’s showcase these jewels of the garden. The warm flaky crust makes the perfect complement to nature’s sweetest flavors. Try serving this scrumptious dessert with Gallo Family Vineyards’ light bodied Pink Moscato. Its bouquet of flavors including white peaches, passion fruit and honeydew melon make it a wonderful pairing. Gallo Family Vineyards stands behind every bottle of wine it produces with the Best Taste Promise. If you are not completely satisfied with the quality of the wine that you’ve chosen to share with your guests, Gallo Family Vineyards invites you to share your thoughts at their official website. It’s just one of the many ways Gallo Family Vineyards maintains its 75 year tradition of producing the highest quality wines at a reasonable price.

Tiny Berry Tartlets

Pairs well with Gallo Family Vineyards® Pink Moscato. Serves: 12 Prep time: 20 minutes Cook time: 5 minutes for the crust: ❏ 3 (16-by-11-inch) sheets frozen phyllo pastry, thawed according to package directions ❏ 2 tablespoons butter, melted ❏ 2 tablespoons ground almonds ❏ 1 tablespoon granulated sugar ❏ 1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar for the fIllIng: ❏ 3/4 cup prepared lemon curd ❏ 4 cups fresh berries, such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries or a mix ❏ Bottled blueberry, blackberry, or raspberry syrup dIrectIons Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray 2 (6-cup) muffin pans with cooking spray and set aside. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a flat surface and brush with a third of the melted butter. In a small bowl, mix the almonds and granulated sugar together and sprinkle half of this mixture on the dough. Place a second sheet of phyllo on top of the first, brush with third of the butter, and sprinkle with the remaining half of the almond/sugar mixture. Place the third phyllo sheet on top, brush with melted butter and sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar. With a sharp paring knife or kitchen shears, cut the layered dough into 12 squares. Gently press each square into a prepared muffin cup to create a freeform tartlet. Bake the tartlets for 5 minutes or until just golden. Let cool in the pans completely. (The tartlet crusts can be made up to 2 days in advance and kept in an airtight container.) To assemble the tartlets, gently remove each tartlet from the muffin pan and place on a serving tray or plate. Place a generous teaspoon of lemon curd in each tartlet. Dip the berries into the syrup with a slotted spoon and mound them on the lemon curd. Serve immediately.

Mushrooms make meals flavorful, better Flavorful, filling, nutrient-rich superfood enhances every dish Make mushrooms the “hidden treasure” in your kitchen by adding them to any and every family meal. Whether paired with meat, tossed in an omelet or wrapped in a sandwich, umami-rich mushrooms add a unique, rich flavor to your recipes. Learn how to blend mushrooms with meat to create delectable dishes your family will love and you’ll feel good serving. See how mushrooms can help bulk up any dish with important nutrients, and depending on how you use them, they may help to save time, money, calories and fat. Mushrooms and Meat: The Perfect Partner Mushrooms’ hearty texture and flavor make them compatible with meats both as a complement or replacement. Swap in mushrooms for a portion of the higher-calorie ingredients in a dish to reduce calories and fat. Blend in diced mushrooms to get another vegetable serving into your family’s favorite meals like spaghetti, hamburgers and sloppy Joes.

Eating Healthy Never Tasted So Good Mushrooms are not only low in calories and fat free, but their flavorful umami content allows for less salt to be used in a dish, without compromising taste. Mushrooms are the only fresh fruit or vegetable with vitamin D. Within the produce aisle, mushrooms are a leading source of the antioxidants selenium and ergothioneine. These antioxidants help strengthen the immune system. Mushrooms provide B vitamins, including riboflavin, niacin, and pantothenic acid. B vitamins help to provide energy by breaking down proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Tips and Tricks of the Trade Store mushrooms in their original packaging or in a porous paper bag for prolonged shelf-life. Clean mushrooms by brushing them off with a damp paper towel; avoid soaking them in water. Save money and effort by buying and sautéing mushrooms in bulk, having them ready to add to any dish, any time. Sautéed mushrooms will keep frozen for up to one month. Use stems and gills from a cleaned out portabella to make mushroom stock that can be used in soups, sauces, and ragouts.
