Thank you While we didn’t have a huge blow out this year to celebrate our 20th Anniversary, we do have plenty of other things for which to be thankful. First on the list is YOU, our customers. We wouldn’t be anywhere without the loyalty and support you’ve shown us over the past 20 years. As we adapted to new safety protocols, went virtual with cooking demos, and navigated supply chain disruptions, you were and continue to be understanding, patient, and caring. We’re lucky to be in the business we’re in as you have taken to your kitchens with a renewed enthusiasm to not only nourish your families, but also to challenge yourselves with new cooking and baking projects while you have more time at home. Thank you for looking to us for the supplies you need. We’re here to help. Happy cooking at home and be well. Mike and Betsy Fear, Owners
We still found ways to celebrate our 20th Anniversary!

Strawberry Lemon Hand Pies with Avery Ingredients 1 Lemon, juiced Pie Dough, chilled ¼ c. Fresh Strawberries, hulled, and diced 1 Egg, beaten for an egg wash Granulated Sugar for dusting ½ c. Strawberry Preserves Pre-heat oven to 425°F. In a small saucepan on low heat; mix strawberries, preserves, and lemon juice until preserves loosen up and thin a bit. Let cool slightly. Roll out chilled pie dough until it’s about ⅛ in. thick. Using either the Progressive Dough Press Set, or a round biscuit cutter, cut the dough into circles. Spoon a teaspoon of filling onto one side, brush the dough with the egg wash and crimp halves together. Use a fork to poke a few holes in the top. Place on a baking sheet. Once all the dough has been used and you’re ready to bake, brush with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, and place in oven for approx. 18 min. (Cook time may vary slightly depending on size of pie and amount of filling used!). Rotate pan partway through baking. Remove from the oven once golden brown. Let cool and enjoy!

Wine recommendation — bubbly! This P. Alexandre Monmousseau Cremant de Loire Brut Extra is made from equal parts Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc in the traditional method, the wine spends considerably more time en tirage than the 12 months prescribed by law, giving the finished product more complexity and texture. Baked lemon, apple, and delicate toasty accents are folded into a fine mousse, making this a dynamic wine for food pairing and so refreshing served with raw oysters. Did you know? We offer a 10% discount on a case of wine and the case can be mixed bottles! We’re happy to help with recommendations, too.

Lobster Risotto Under Pressure 2 Tbsp Butter 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
¼ Cup Grated Parmesan 2 Cups Lobster Stock
1 Onion, chopped 1 Tbsp Chives, minced 1 Cup Arborio Rice Salt & Black Pepper Meat from a small cooked lobster
How to Make It
If using a Zavor Multicooker, turn on the multicooker to Brown/ Saute mode. If using a stovetop pressure cooker, turn the heat onto medium-high. Add butter and olive oil, stir until melted. Stir in onions and sauté for 4–5 minutes. Add rice, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, do not let it brown. Add in the lobster stock. If using a multicooker, put the cover onto the cooker with the setting changed from Brown/Saute to Pressure. If using a stovetop pressure cooker, put the cover on and allow it to come up to pressure. Set the timer to 12 minutes for a multicooker and 9 minutes for a stovetop pressure cooker. No stirring needed!
Release the pressure once the timer ends. Add lobster (can use cooked mushrooms instead if you’re not into seafood!). Stir in grated parmesan. Top with chives and serve!
