Sun Valley’s
LEADING LADIES W O M E N C H E F S ADD S WEETNES S A ND S I Z Z LE By Kate Hull
Photography by Kirsten Shultz
From sweet to savor y, the Wood River Valley is known for ser ving up delicious and inspired entrées, pastries, cakes, and more from its crop of must-tr y restaurants and bakeries. It’s no wonder the region is known as a foodie mecca, offering creative cuisine that spans the globe with local ingredients from nearby farms that are the best of the best. And the head chefs behind the mouth-watering creations are as worthy of celebration as the recipes themselves, and these Sun Valley women are no exception.
SARAH LIPTON
Known as a pastry chef extraordinaire, Sarah Lipton’s sweet treats are as artful as they are delicious. Sarah, and business partner Taylor Rossi, own a bakery and floral gift shop, Hank & Sylvie’s, where Sarah is the head pastry chef. Along with a team of talented bakers, Sarah creates artfully decorated birthday and wedding cakes, as well as pastries and sweet treats. Lipton says she loves to bake items that are sweet but not overly sweet, like flavorful buttery croissants and delicious cookies. “I like things to have a bit of a savory touch, with salt or herbs or something like that,” she said. “I try to use as many local ingredients as possible. When I can’t find them locally, I look for the best ones I can find that are the highest quality.” A self-proclaimed chocolate-

chip cookie lover, her style might best shine through with her brown butter and sea salt chocolate chip cookies. “The butter gives it more depth, and the sea salt cuts the sweetness,” Lipton said. “We use three different types of chocolate in the cookie, so it has lots of nuances.” Lipton grew up cooking with her mom, “or making a mess while she cooked,” she laughed. “She might see it differently than I do.” A Michigan native, she went to pastry school in Chicago after college and relocated to Sun Valley. “I am one of those weirdos who knew in high school I wanted to go to pastry school,” she said. Lipton has never not worked in a restaurant or bakery, so the seemingly long days and time on her feet is part of the appeal, she explains. “I don’t do well with idle time
or sitting time,” said Lipton. “It keeps my brain busy and my body busy.” And creating cakes is a way for her to showcase her creative and artistic side. And while her repertoire of baked goods runs the gamut, she is most known for and spends a majority of her day on beautiful cakes. “I do really love making wedding cakes and birthday cakes,” she said. “It is what I spend more of my time doing every day; and it is where I spend most of my time creatively.” One of Lipton’s favorite things about being a chef in the Wood River Valley is the connections she can make to the people who enjoy what she bakes. “When I get an email hearing I loved the cake they had, it means more when I have a face to the name. I have actual relationships with our customers.”

LYNDSEY MASON
The restaurant business is in Lyndsey Mason’s DNA, it seems. Her parents, Anne and Scott Mason, along with her sister Adelaide, are the family behind three notable Ketchum restaurants: Ketchum Grill, Enoteca, and Town Square Tavern—where Lyndsey is the head chef. “My parents met in a restaurant in Santa Barbara, California, and moved to Ketchum in the late80s,” she said. Born and raised in Ketchum, her earliest memories involve time spent at restaurants alongside her sister and parents. “I grew up in the kitchen as young as I can remember,” said Mason. “I remember being five years old at the restaurant over Christmas week doing tasks. My sister and I would get our homework done and help our parents. It is what I have always known.” And although it was never expected of her to become a part of the family trade, Lyndsey knew that’s what she wanted to do. “I just always loved working in the kitchen. My sister was always the floor person, and I was in the
kitchen; I loved the artistry of the food.” Lyndsey went to college in Portland, Oregon, and stayed in the area for five years and traveled frequently. She then moved back to Ketchum and worked at Enoteca. When her parents opened Town Square Tavern in 2015, she decided to stay in the area and help them open. When developing a menu, she loves to riff ideas off of her dad, combining his years of experience with her new ideas. Describing her style as modern, Lyndsey says she focuses on the flavors and how they work together, making sure to use seasonal and local ingredients whenever she can, rather than the same year-round. “I always change the menu based on what we can get. Older restaurants might have their tried and true year-round menu, but I like changing things and coming up with new ideas.” At the Tavern, this means you might find a new favorite menu item each time you come, but Lyndsey enjoys the sporadic style. “Having new foods and trying new
menu items keeps that excitement alive.' During the quarantine period this past spring, Lyndsey changed up the menu and focused on Mediterranean flavor profiles found in North Africa, Jordan, Lebanon, and beyond. “It is really fun to bring these different flavors to Ketchum,” she said. When asked what ingredients she couldn’t live without, Lyndsey says fish sauce–she loves how much flavor it adds–and sherry vinegar. “With every dish or sauce, I seem to say it just needs a little sherry vinegar. It just needs a little splash of sherry vinegar.” Although the pandemic has made the restaurant industry even more challenging in some ways, Lyndsey is reminded of how much she truly enjoys creating exciting food. “When I create a great menu and great specials and the whole night people are telling the servers that this is the best meal they have ever had, that makes me realize I am at the top of my game in creating things people enjoy,” said Mason. sunvalleymag.com/dining | TASTE 9
SIMONE KASTNER
It’s a family affair at CK’s Real Food. Inside the bistro-style restaurant, Simone Kastner creates the much-loved desserts, breads, and homemade ice creams alongside her mom, Rebecca, while her dad, Chris Kastner, develops the menu with Gavin, her brother. After seventeen years as a chef-partner at Evergreen Bistro, Chris and Rebecca opened CK’s Real Food in 2003. Simone remembers her parents putting a paring knife in her hand early. In first grade, Chris taught Simone how to make a pepperoni omelet. “I could julienne and sauté and flip an egg,” she recalled. “That was my 7-year-old party trick.” “They taught us the ropes early,” she said. “When we opened CK’s, I was 14. I started as a busser, and I absolutely hated it; I hated being on the floor. I was shy, and it was not for me.” But then, Simone moved to the kitchen and started working on the line doing the pastry stations or cold appetizers. “I started freezing ice cream and eventually started doing more baking,” said Simone. “I basically grew up in it. It taught me to value my work and really care about my job.” Simone went to the “culinary school of CK’s,” as she calls it. She learned the ropes of baking from her mom, whose original recipes became a staple on the menu. “She was a great mentor as well,” Simone says. And although she is too modest to call herself the pastry chef, Simone is in charge of the dessert menu and also makes the sourdough bread, table bread, and hamburger buns. “We also have a thing called CK’s Pantry that we started a few years ago, where we sell dressings, sauces, and baked goods at the restaurant and Chocolate Hazelnut Cake with candied hazelnuts and housemade vanilla ice cream; Pluot Apple Galette made with Waterwheel Gardens apples and pluots and Hillside Grain flour; CK’s Mushroom Toast.

Kraay’s Market,” Simone said. “Prepandemic, we offered CK’s pantry online. You would order Sunday and pick up Wednesday, but now we just have a case out front where you can buy everything.” Simone describes her baking style as rustic. “I am not into fussy desserts,” she said. Simone loves to source ingredients locally and when she can’t, chooses organic. She also prefers things to be simple and tasty and leaves the ornate and decorative skills to pastry chefs like her friend Sarah Lipton. “I am not like Sarah Lipton, who is super-talented at making things look amazing.” You can bet that on any trip to CK’s you will find Rebecca’s carrot cake on the dessert menu. “That is the one dessert we could never take off the menu, people would freak out,” Simone laughs. Simone adds her own spin to the offerings with desserts like a vegan crème Brule and coconut almond cake with a dark chocolate cardamom ganache with coconut milk. “I think it is important to have options for people who don't eat dairy or don’t eat gluten, so I always offer something gluten -that is chocolate,” Simone said. “But there will definitely be carrot cake.” And whether it is sweet or savory, Simone says she couldn’t bake or cook without a good sea salt. “From a super-young age, my dad and mom taught me you have to season and taste your food. Even with desserts, salt is in everything I make.” While desserts are her specialty, you can still find Simone brainstorming entrées with her dad or thinking up creative sourdough recipes. It’s a true family affair, after all. “I really love working with my folks.” g

HILLSIDE GRAIN FAM I LY- G R O W N A N D MI LLED A R T I S A N A L F L O UR By Hayden Seder

hen talking to Brett Stevenson, the founder of Hillside Grain, the excitement in her voice conveys the passion she has for what she does: growing grain and milling flour from her family’s farm in the Bellevue Triangle. What makes Hillside Grain unique is so much more than being a local farm making flour; this small farm is disrupting a centralized food system by using local grains to create craft flour. It’s changing our perception of flour from something that’s stripped of its nutrients, can be stored for years, and lacks flavor to something that’s flavorful, local, fresh, and nutritious. According to an article in The Atlantic, there were once at least 16,000 flour mills in this country; now there are less than 200. Stevenson is personally reviving this type of production in the Wood River Valley. Hillside Ranch, the family-run farm that provides the grains for Hillside Grain, is located at the headwaters of Silver Creek in premium grain-growing country. Stevenson, 42, and her brother Justin (who works at the ranch improving water management and soil health) grew up on Hillside Ranch under the tutelage of their parents who

began farming and ranching the land in the early ’70s. Over time, Stevenson’s father John became an award-winning grain grower and a major contributor to the brewing industry—a job he still does today in his mid-80s. “Growing up here pretty much created who my brother and I are,” Stevenson said. “The desire to build the farm mill was largely because I wanted to build on top of what my dad created and add my own chapter to the operation.” What makes Hillside Grain’s flour so unique is the high-extraction process, its flavor and freshness, and the nutrients retained within the flour through that process. Most flour in our country is white flour that has been stripped of its bran and germ which is where all the flavor and nutritional value are. Those are often added back in as “enriched flour,” but this is a synthetic form of vitamins and minerals that isn’t as absorbable and loses its flavor. “People are used to that, to flour having no flavor. What’s crazy for me is going through this whole process and realizing how much awesome flavor is actually embedded in the wheat in a high-quality, high extraction,” said Stevenson. People are also used to flour with a long shelf life whereas Hillside Grain's flours are semi-perishable. There are often chemicals used in typi-
cal flour production, such as bromate, a conditioner that is banned in China, Europe, and Canada, but which is still used in the U.S. (though not at Hillside). The short supply chain for Stevenson’s flours also sets it apart. While there are many large-scale flour producers and a resurrection of small-scale, artisan ones, Stevenson counts herself in a grey area in-between those two ends of the spectrum, which is an area that there’s very little of in the U.S. Her grain is grown on the farm and the mill is just across the road. Stevenson sees the problems in having a centralized food system (which large-scale production creates), especially during times like these, and notes that local food systems often fare better during times of national crisis. “It’s fascinating to see how a pandemic becomes one of the threats [to a centralized food system],” said Stevenson. “The supposed ‘flour shortage’ we experienced in the spring, and a bit now, wasn’t so much an actual flour shortage—it is about trying to redirect that flour supply to the grocery stores and those large facilities have a much harder time doing that.” When the pandemic started, Hillside Grain was primarily geared toward wholesale and bulk sales to bakeries.

Roman Chavez of Hangar Bread Bakery in Hailey offers artisanal baked breads using Hillside Grain flours.
But when demand from home bakers went up, Stevenson began putting together four-pound bags much sooner than she expected. “It’s so cool to see so many people baking at home and appreciating how good fermented sourdough breads and home-baked breads are, and how fun and cathartic and rewarding baking at home can be.” Hillside also has both a roller and stone mill; the only other place with a similar system is Cairnspring Mills in Washington, which supplies 100 precent of the flour to San Francisco’s famous Tartine Bakery. At the moment, Hillside Grain is carried locally at Atkinsons’ in Hailey and Bellevue, Café Della, Ketchum Kitchens, Kraay’s Market & Garden, and both Boise Co-op locations. Several high-extraction varieties are usually available and sometimes some rye or barley flour. Stevenson has also been experimenting with some grain varieties from the Bread Lab at Washington State University, which will hopefully lead to more flour variety. “People don’t understand what is going on with wheat and flour; they think it’s stagnant and boring,” Stevenson said. “We’re a grain-growing country. If you want to talk about local and regional food—the farmer’s market is rad—but by far and above, we’re so well-suited for grain. If you delve into it a bit, grain can be fascinating.” g

Idaho Grown FI V E I N N O VAT I V E L E A DERS I N I DA HO ’ S F O O D I NDUS TRY By Caroline Albro
Ever since the planting of the first potato in Idaho soil back in the mid-19th centur y, Idaho has enjoyed a long histor y of food and agricultural innovation. In the centuries since, the Idaho potato has seen ever ything from J. R. Simplot’s revolutionar y frozen French fries at McDonald’s to present-day Idaho chef Lou Aaron coining the Ice Cream Potato. These days, the Idaho potato is still a state symbol, but groundbreaking food entrepreneurs are entering the scene with a wide variety of products. With more farmers’ markets, CSAs, and food events across the state than ever, innovative, often plant-based, and delicious food products are coming to dominate the Idaho food industr y.
THE KULA CONNECTION
At 40 years old, Michelle Russell found herself overweight, ill, and unhappy. She first learned about the advantages of plantbased eating from a documentary, and quickly got on board. With her husband, she founded The Kula Connection, a Boise-based food community that produces plant-based cheeses, nuts, and other treats. “I wanted to make things that were actually capable of increasing your body’s wellness,” Russell said, describing her motivation for beginning Kula. “We were living in this dinky little apartment in Boise and I started culturing cheese on top of the water heater in my girls’ room.” After developing her product, Russell faced challenges in working with the health inspector, finding kitchen space, and avoiding burnout. But she’s made it work and
16 TASTE | Winter 2020 / 2021
her products are now sold in specialty markets regionally. Russell firmly believes in the benefits of her products, especially after watching her mother pass away from breast cancer and while supporting another friend with the same disease. Her non-dairy cheeses support gut health, avoiding the saturated fat of dairy cheese. Russell also understands the connection between food and mind. “That’s why our tagline is ‘good mood food,’” Russell said. Russell’s goal in starting The Kula Connection ultimately involves “working with people to restore their health, to take a step beyond providing them a product that restores their health.” She hopes to teach her customers about the healing power of plants, just as she has personally experienced through her own journey with plant-based eating.

KELSI’S KITCHEN
Kelsi Petersen has been preparing for Kelsi’s Kitchen her whole life. From a young age, she was attending culinary workshops with her mother, adopting a raw food diet, and even teaching healthy cooking classes to her community. One class, called Divine Desserts, taught attendees how to make healthier versions of their favorite treats, including chocolate. “We had people come to these classes, but they didn’t want to pay to do the work. They would always ask for the chocolates,” Petersen said. Petersen would grow up and move to Utah with her husband, but she made her way back to her hometown of Idaho Falls to raise her two sons. Soon after moving back to Idaho, Petersen found herself looking for a new challenge. “I wanted to start something. People really liked these chocolates and I
18 TASTE | Winter 2020 / 2021
wanted to see what I could do.” So, she started Kelsi’s Kitchen, where she now makes healthy refrigerated chocolate treats with no refined sugar and only five ingredients. Offering a variety of flavors, Petersen hopes that she can appeal to customers who want a nutritious yet satisfyingly sweet option. Only three months after starting Kelsi’s Kitchen in 2019, Petersen’s mother passed away due to ALS. The woman who had originally introduced Petersen to the world of nutrition and food was gone, but Petersen only lets it motivate her. “I want to continue what we did… I think one of the biggest challenges is feeling like you can really do it. You’ll never find out if you don’t try.” Today, Kelsi’s Kitchen donates 10 percent of proceeds to ALS research in honor of her mother.

spices and fruits—such as ginger, tumeric, raspberries, elderf lowers, schizandra berries, apple cider vinegar, raw honey.
ERTH BEVERAGE CO.
After decades of working in the food and retail industries, Sam and Eric Herrera were looking for something new. With a background in nutrition, Sam had been working for Whole Foods, while Eric, who attended culinary school, was working at a brewery in Boise. They decided to leave their jobs, combine their entrepreneurial spirits and creative minds, and start Erth Beverage Co. to produce nourishing and refreshing carbonated drinks to their community. Eric’s knowledge of brewing from his time at the brewery was essential. During the early days of Erth, the couple would brew batches of their botanical sodas in one 31-gallon tank. Sam was printing the drink labels off of a home computer, sticking them on the sweaty soda bottles right before selling them at the farmer’s market, so that the sticker wouldn’t slide off. Even now,
Erth is a little scrappy. “We don’t have any employees, it’s just us and a couple of friends,” Sam said. But that’s exactly what many of Erth’s customers like about them. Sam and Eric don’t take things too seriously. And above all, Erth Beverage Co. values community. “That’s what we really want to do ultimately, is to include as many people in the community in Idaho as we can. Especially with COVID, we’ve realized how much stronger we are together,” Eric reflected. For Erth, the inclusion of community means incorporating Idaho-sourced ingredients, selling at local markets, and talking to as many people as possible about their products. While interactions with the community look a little different right now due to COVID-19, Erth is still managing to meet their customers’ needs during the pandemic, including efforts towards developing new flavors with immune-system-boosting properties.

SUN VALLEY MUSTARD
and wanted to put our products in the welcome bags. There were 380 guests… 380 of the most successful, well-connected people in the world. We were able to get our product in front of them in one fell swoop. It only takes one person to make a product big,” Wells said. Furthermore, the brand name and association with Sun Valley Resort serves Sun Valley Mustard well. They’re a familiar brand and continue to thrive in local food competitions, now more than 30 years after its original founding. Despite his tribulations with the food industry, Wells still loves Sun Valley Mustard. “Our competitive advantage is that it’s a very unique flavor and a very unique formulation… Our mustard lends itself well for cooking and for a lot of different things.” Nowadays, he’s focusing on making smart choices to balance the business with his personal life. “The positive thing that is going to come out of all of this is that I’ll be able to guide my son down the right path when he has to make tough decisions. Is that really what you want to do? If it doesn’t work, what’s your exit point? You have got to love what you do,” Wells advised. PHOTOS: COURTESY SUN VALLEY MUSTARD
Josh Wells knows the food industry pretty well at this point. He took over Sun Valley Mustard from its previous owner in 2011, after he fell in love with the product. Back then, Wells didn’t know exactly what he hoped to do with the business – he knew that he wanted to keep Sun Valley Mustard alive and share the amazing condiment with others, but he didn’t have a concrete plan or end goal in sight. Wells quickly discovered many inefficiencies and hurdles in the grocery and food industry. Between the difficulty of attracting distributors, the expenses of demos in stores, and the steep manufacturing costs, Wells faced many challenges. Nonetheless, Wells devoted himself to Sun Valley Mustard. Within the first year of his leadership, he increased Sun Valley Mustard’s revenue by 300 percent, in part by boosting sales outside of the Wood River Valley. He brought on experienced management, strategized distribution, and streamlined manufacturing. He also capitalized on some pretty lucky moments. “A couple years ago, Allen and Company contacted us

HOT ERIC HONEY
Hot Eric Honey began out of a desire to make something nourishing, healthy, and delicious. When Molly Munster’s daughter contracted a medical condition in 2012, Munster started incorporating healthier options into her family’s diet. Munster resisted the idea that healthy food has to taste poorly, and instead began to find delicious ways to support gut health and anti-inflammation. Pretty soon, she started experimenting with mixing local honey with spices, like turmeric, and Hot Eric Honey was born. Munster did not have a business approach when she started Hot Eric. “I started [Hot Eric Honey] through love and my intent was to offer something up to my family and my community and my loved ones that I really believe in. It wasn’t money motivated… I’m not a businesswoman, but I’m learning how to be.” Part of that learning journey involves harnessing the power of marketing and social media. Munster spent months
sending random direct messages to potential customers over Instagram. She wasn’t sure anyone would even give Hot Eric a second thought, until she received an email from Goop, Gwyneth Paltrow’s health and lifestyle blog, notifying Munster that Hot Eric had been chosen for their Winter 2020 Gift Guide. Munster celebrated this milestone, saying, “That magical little piece will potentially hold my business together through the pandemic! I want to reach as many people as I can, and this is a golden opportunity.” While she’s uncertain how this newfound exposure will affect her brand, she’s optimistic. “I think it’s a benefit that I actually have more of a beginner’s mind in this world instead of knowing what other people have done or what I should do next. I just go with my gut, my intuition, my heart.” Munster often refers to her product as a “hug in a mug.” And that’s exactly what she set out to do with Hot Eric Honey: provide a little more love to the world. g sunvalleymag.com/dining | TASTE 21

Hailey’s Café Della and Ketchum Kitchens announced a new collaboration for the Ketchum Kitchen's store in Ketchum (next door to Atkinsons’ Market in Giacobbi Square). Café Della will be providing a selection of gourmet dishes and stables, including grab-and-go salads, picnic packs, hummus and dips, potato salad, pasta salad, cookies, granola and more—all found in the expanded Ketchum Kitchens Gourmet Market Place. Café Della has also launched a weekly online ordering system for diners looking for delicious meal kits to take home and finish. Offerings like Lava Lake lamb kebabs with housemade tzatziki or beer and chile braised pork sandwiches with KBC slaw, cilantro-lime crema, and pickled onions join a delicious selection of sides and desserts, all made from scratch.
Fresh Casarecce Pasta with Cacio e Pepe butter paired with Arugula Salad with Picabo Farms Idaho Goat Feta, Lemon Honey Vinaigrette, and crunchy Dukkah. All available at Provisions.
Mason Family Provisions (owners of the popular Enoteca, Ketchum Grill and Town Square Tavern) also launched a store this year, which was in high demand throughout the spring and summer as home chefs clamored for more of their homemade delights, including fresh pasta—made daily using only three ingredients: semolina flour, organic Idaho eggs, and Ketchum's finest water. The Provisions online store highlights seasonal ingredients such as Idaho morels alongside staples like homemade lasagna ready to reheat, fresh daily soups, assorted cooking oils, smoked salts, Scott Mason's great granola, pasta sauces and custom cured meats and cold smoked salmon. Located right next door to Town Square Tavern in Ketchum. 24 TASTE | Winter 2020 / 2021
Apple's Bar & Grill celebrates 33 years at the base of Warm Springs.
Apple's Bar & Grill has been going strong at the base of Warm Springs for 33 years now and offers outdoor seating options, an outdoor fire pit and takeout. And don't forget about Irving's Red Hots. The tiny hot dog stand famous for "The Works" has always been order-up and takeout, so is perfect for grabbing a bite for a day on the slopes. Wrap City also offers call-in orders prewrapped and easy to eat wherever you find yourself—we have even known a few locals who stuff one in their jacket pocket for an on-the-go lunch in the middle of a great ski day. And, of course, all the Sun Valley mountain lodges: River Run Lodge, Seattle Ridge Lodge, The Roundhouse, Warm Springs Lodge and Lookout Lodge will be offering to-go options, as well as limited seating. And the views from the outdoor tables at both Seattle Ridge Lodge and Lookout Lodge just can't be beat. And the deck at The Roundhouse is historic!
il Naso Welcomes a New Chef Executive Chef David Cruz has developed a brand new menu for il Naso that promises to be delicious, tantalizing and a fresh take on traditional Italian cuisine. Delicious antipasto starters like pan-charred clams and calamari fra diavolo round out a rotating mix of insalte, pasta and piatti principali dishes. We can't wait to sample the new winter menu!
To-Go Apps and Online Ordering 2020 saw the launch of a new mobile ordering app from Paddles Up Poke, which allows dedicated diners to order directly from their mobile device or tablet. And 5B Flavor, a new online restaurant directory for the Wood River Valley founded by Seattlite Tracy Lyon in collaboration with Tyler Hendricks, offers online browsers a simple way to order from their favorite restaurant for to-go or curbside pickup.

Java on Fourth in Ketchum, one of two locations in the Valley In November 1991, Todd Rippo began what he always described as a selfish endeavor. Essentially, he created a place where he would want to hang out. Java has a hand-crafted bakery menu (most of the recipes from Todd's sister Annie) and breakfast and lunch menus that echo his Southern California roots. In line with his original vision, Java has always, and continues to, use fresh roasted, fair trade, and relationship coffees and serves it all in an inviting, rock 'n' roll atmosphere where the music is played a bit too loud!

Dine like a local—head to The Pio! saloon atmosphere. Originally opened in 1940 as a bar, it went through many changes over the next 20 years before being officially redesigned as a restaurant. It is largely known now for its hearty servings of prime rib and filets. For some, The Pioneer Saloon is the first restaurant to head to when coming into town and the last place to go before leaving. For others, it’s where they met their significant other, perhaps over a Bartender's Margarita. For the Witmer family, it’s their Ketchum legacy. Duffy and Sheila Witmer have been the sole owners of the Pio since 1986. Today with their children they strive to honor a historical classic while bringing new ideas to Ketchum’s restaurant scene.
