Why bars should consider adding craft beverages to their menu
An exploration of the artisanal beer, cider, wine, and spirits movement in all three tiers.
It is not news that craft beverages are at an all-time high and growing fast to compete with well-established brands that have been around for decades if not centuries.
It is also not difficult to understand why: unique and high-quality products, customers' demand for authenticity, expansion of distribution channels, health and wellness trends, and so on.
But being available in independent stores or taprooms is not satisfactory to the consumers anymore. Here’s why bars and restaurants should consider adding craft beverages to their menu:
Meeting customer demand
As mentioned earlier, there is a growing demand for authentic and unique products among consumers, including craft beverages. By offering craft beverages on their menu, bars, and restaurants can attract customers who are looking for something different from the usual mainstream options.
The market for alcohol products is highly competitive, and bars and restaurants that differentiate themselves by offering craft beverages can set themselves apart from their competitors. Offering a unique and diverse selection of craft beverages, bars, and restaurants can create a distinct brand identity and attract customers looking for a unique experience.
Higher profit margins
Craft beverages often have higher profit margins compared to mainstream options. While the cost of sourcing craft beverages may be higher, customers are often willing to pay a premium for a unique and high-quality product. This means that bars and restaurants can charge higher prices for craft beverages, resulting in higher profit margins.
Collaborations and partnerships
Many craft beverage producers are small-scale operations that are eager to collaborate with bars and restaurants to showcase their products. This can lead to mutually beneficial partnerships that help to promote both the bar/restaurant and the craft beverage producer.
Supporting local businesses
Featuring craft beverages from local producers, bars, and restaurants can support local businesses and strengthen ties to their community. This can help to build a loyal customer base and generate positive word-of-mouth advertising.

She got me their ebelskiver pan and a rolled omelette pan to be exact, both of which make the best breakfast food. I was super pumped for both but the decision on which to use first was pretty clear...
Æbleskiver are adorable Danish pancakes, or the perfect pancake/popover hybrid. These babies are the fluffiest, most airy, and delicious puff balls I've ever eaten, and the fact that you can fill them with whatever you're heart desires is just magical.
The process is quite simple and only calls for one other "specialty" item (after you have the pan): skewers. Williams-Sonoma sells a set of two skewers for a whopping $13, so I opted for a pack of 80 for $1.50 at Target. After pouring a teaspoon of batter into the buttered wells, I added a teaspoon of a diced apples cooked with cinnamon sugar and pecans, followed by another teaspoon of batter. Then each was flipped using skewers and cooked till golden-brown.
They're then topped with whatever you like. Maple syrup and powdered sugar were my preferred choice. I've since made them with apricot preserves, cinnamon sugar, and chocolate hazelnut spread. All equally delicious, though the cinnamon sugar ones were like mini cinnamon rolls!
Now, omelettes have always been the worst for me. My fillings would inevitably fall out while attempting to flip or, almost always, would fall apart while plating. This pan helped make the perfect omelette. Every. Single. Time. The pan has a helpful divider and comes with a handy spatula to help with the rolling action, too.
Perfectly rolled with all of the fillings intact... until you dig in! You know me and my love for cooking gadgets. Now to go make some brunch.


A few years ago (about 3 years ago to the week actually) a sensation was started with this No Knead Bread Recipe.
I love it because it's easy (really, there's NO kneading!) and it's cheap.
And best of all?
No allergy warning.
It's made in MY facility (and there's no nuts here). If you have a dutch oven, some flour, some yeast and some salt (oh and water) you'll be able to do it to.
Have you tried it? I'm making a loaf as we speak - it should be warm and out of the overn in time for dinner on Saturday night.

Enjoyable Family Meal Out
From the time we entered the restaurant, to the time we left, everything was perfect. Excellent, well trained, friendly staff who actually enjoyed serving us. Food was magnificent! Didn’t think we were able for dessert but after seeing the presentation of the desserts being brought out to others we couldn’t say no, and boy was it worth it! Will definitely be back!
We stopped at The Haven after renting a house in the village. The lunch there really sealed the deal. Delicious chowder, wonderful cottage pie and the view out of the restaurant window was gorgeous, even in December!! The server and the other staff were super friendly.
Fantastic venue, we went here on our Christmas night out and had a fantastic night. Great selection on the menu and food was very good. Staff were very friendly to deal with. Everything was just perfect. Everyone had a very enjoyable evening and night. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic place to stay. The service was great and we loved every moment of our stay. I’m gluten and dairy intolerant and was pleasantly surprised that they offered gluten free bread and soya milk! The food was fabulous. Highly recommend the rooms with sea view.

Foods grown organically help preserve the environment, contain less chemicals or pesticides, stimulate growth hormones and are richer in nutrients.
YES they are. They are high in nutrients because they boost their resistance to weeds and other pests. Non-Organic foods however are assisted with pesticides and chemical engineering that boost their growth for marketing but makes them weaker in production of phytochemicals such as vitamins and antioxidants.
Organic food is one that grows on soil that has no prohibited substance in it prior to the harvest of that food or produce.
Organic produce generally go bad quicker, are more expensive and may contain pesticides as well.
Here are some foods you definitely should buy organic. They are apples, grapes, peaches, strawberry, celery, spinach, sweet bell peppers, potatoes, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, imported nectarines, and imported snap peas.

Buffalo milk had been widely known and widely used for its thick and creamy texture. The rich taste of this milk, however, is not only what it has to offer. Buffalo milk is a storage of most minerals and nutrients that your body needs. The following is what your glass of buffalo milk is made of:
PROTEIN. Buffalo milk is richly packed with protein. Every glass of buffalo milk contains 7.74 mg of protein. This prevents muscle loss and maintains healthy skin, nails and hair. Protein can also help you lose weight as it fuels fat burning and makes you feel full longer.
MINERALS. Milk is generally known for its calcium content. Buffalo milk is extremely rich in calcium that is essential for your bone and dental health. It is also a good source of magnesium, potassium, phosphorus and iron that helps red blood cells supply oxygen to your body including the heart muscle.
VITAMINS. Buffalo milk contains Vitamin b12 which decreases the chance of heart attack and stroke. It is also a good source of riboflavin and significant amounts of Vitamins A and C and Thiamine. A small amount of Folate, Vitamin B6 and Niacin can also be found in every serving of buffalo milk.
HIGH IN FAT. The high fat content of buffalo milk gives it the creamy texture and is also good for healthy weight gain as it increases muscle mass.
LOW IN CHOLESTEROL. Although the buffalo milk can increase your weight, it is still a healthy option as the low level of cholesterol keeps your heart healthy. It is also ideal for people suffering from diabetes as it lowers down the level of bad cholesterol in the body.
Did you know?
The calcium content of 1 glass of buffalo milk is equal to that of 14 eggs! That’s 378 mg of calcium.
The energy content of 1 glass of buffalo milk is equal to that of 1.5 kg of cabbage! That’s 210.6 kcal of energy.
The phosphorus content of 1 glass of buffalo milk is equal to that of 9 bananas. That’s 234 mg of phosphorus.

Food labelling checklistPrint publication
This checklist sets out the key considerations for food producers and food service companies to ensure compliance with the new food labelling regime, effective from 13 December 2014. The legislation is detailed and contains many exemptions as well as particular requirements for particular foods. This checklist should therefore not be treated as a substitute for legal advice. Please speak to us to discuss your particular concerns.
If you sell loose food (including caterers)
- The Regulation prescribes 14 allergens that need to be identified if included in a dish. You will need to supply information for every item on your menu that contains any of these allergens as ingredients. An obvious place to do this would be the menu itself. The 14 prescribed allergens are: cereals containing gluten; crustaceans; eggs; fish; peanuts; nuts; soybeans; milk; celery; mustard; sesame seeds; sulphur dioxide; lupin; molluscs.
- You will need to identify and control the allergens present in the food you supply. You should also undertake a risk assessment of any allergen cross-contamination within your premises as the allergen information provided to the consumer must accurately reflect the final dish served.
- You must not mislead the consumer as to the ingredients. For example, if a product is usually made from lamb mince but in a particular case is made from beef mince, this should be stated.”Formed products” should be described as such on the menu.
If you sell pre-packed food
- If the product contains any of the 14 prescribed allergens you must ensure that the allergen is distinguished from other ingredients by means of a different typeset (e.g. bold type). The name of the allergen must follow the ingredient or additive name if its presence might not be obvious to the consumer.
- The label must state the name and address of the EU manufacturer/brand owner; or the name of the importer into the EU if the manufacturer/brand owner is not established in the EU.
- Consider whether an indication of country of origin is mandatory or not. It will be mandatory if: its absence is likely to mislead consumers as to the true country of origin; it is mandatory under other EU provisions (e.g. those relating to beef); the product is fresh, chilled or frozen meat of swine, sheep, goat or poultry. You will also need to specify the country of origin of the primary ingredient if this differs from that of the product and the country of origin is given for the product.
- Nutritional declarations will remain voluntary until 13 December 2016 at which point they will become mandatory. If you do voluntarily choose to provide nutritional information in the meantime, you must do so in a prescribed format.
- If the food has been defrosted, this needs to be stated (as has been the case before for, e.g.” smoked” or “concentrated” products). The date for first freezing is required on meat and fish products.
- Ensure that the net quantity appears on the label in the same field of vision as the product name. The field of vision is “all surfaces of a package that can be read from a single viewing point”.
- List ingredients in descending order of weight. The indication of the quantity of an ingredient should be given if the name of the ingredient appears in the name of the food; is emphasised on the label; or is essential to characterise the food from similar products.
- Include a lot mark in order to facilitate traceability in case a product recall is needed.
- Ensure that the product has a durability indication, e.g. a “use by” or “best before” date, unless it is exempted from the requirement to have one. The durability indication need not be in the same field of vision as the product name and other mandatory information.
- Ensure labelling complies with new minimum font requirements.
If you sell into EU Member States outside the UK, make sure that the mandatory information appears in a language easily understood by consumers in that country.

I love coffee. Coffee and I have been through a lot together. Coffee is always there, meeting my need for a warm, tasty beverage. Is there anything coffee can’t do?
Well...Yes. Because as much as I love coffee, sometimes I’m in the mood for sweet, crisp, refreshing soda. Soda has been there for me long before I knew coffee. Soda has been at every childhood (and adulthood) birthday party. Soda has been there for every ill-judged late-night McDonalds visit. Soda is the shoulder-devil to coffee’s shoulder-angel.
What if I could combine coffee and soda into a morally neutral shoulder-being? Would I become unstoppable? Possibly.

Chef Chris Mumford brings passion for food, gardening to new Sickles Market
The chef purchased his ingredients. The grocer dined at his restaurant.
Now, they're in it together.
Thirty years after chef Chris Mumford opened his first restaurant, and more than four decades since Bob Sickles joined his family's century-old produce business, the two are shaping the future of the landmark Sickles Market.
"I used to love his restaurant," Sickles, 63, of Rumson said of Mumford, who is 59 and lives in West Allenhurst. "When it went, I was kind of sad because I thought it was one of the best ever. He's the original farmers -to-table guy."
Their collaboration is a natural fit: Both share a love of gardening, food and how the two intertwine.
"He's such an easy-going guy," said Mumford, who is 59 and lives in West Allenhurst, of Sickles. "I enjoyed our friendship, so it worked out well that way."
A love of the garden
In the 1970s, Mumford was living in an apartment in Long Branch.
He wanted a place to grow vegetables, so he asked his landlord for permission to convert a patch of outdoor space into a garden. This was his first attempt at gardening on his own, but he had learned to garden from his father, and later landed a job picking beets on a West Long Branch farm. He loved it.
This passion for growing food eventually became a hallmark of his culinary career, which spanned more than three decades in the kitchens of others and his own — first at Mumford's Unique American Cuisine in Long Branch then Cafe Mumford's in Tinton Falls.
Looking back: Cafe Mumford's in Tinton Falls to close
"A lot of chefs have things they enjoy: Some chefs are great ice carvers, some chefs are great sauciers," he said in 2018 when he made the decision to sell the cafe after 20 years. "I love the passion of the garden, of growing my own, of taking on that challenge. I love to create. I love to create food.
"If you want to be a really good cook," he said, "look in the food, not at it."
Through the years, his approach caught the attention of Sickles, third-generation owner of the specialty market, which his grandfather started as a farm more than a century ago.
A partnership in the making
Sickles dined at and attended classes at Mumford's cafe, which, before it closed, also served as a culinary center.
"He taught me how to use a chef's knife and a lot of little things along the way," Sickles said.
Cafe Mumford shut its doors in summer 2018, and Sickles quickly reached out with a proposition.
"I said I don't want to interrupt (your retirement), but would you consider working here?," he said, "He said 'as long as I can garden and cook, I'll be happy.'
"I knew he'd bring a lot to the table," Sickles said.
By Thanksgiving that year, Mumford had joined the Sickles team, and "I've been here ever since," the chef said. "Eventually they made me the culinary director, so I have my hands in anything that has to do with the food."
Two years before, Sickles had announced he was expanding the family business to Red Bank, where a new market would be built inside the long-vacant, 1920s-era Anderson Moving & Storage Building on Monmouth Street. The 8,000-square-foot store, which will sell gourmet grocery and bakery items, cheeses, meats, seafood, and fresh produce, is scheduled to open Aug. 6; Mumford will oversee its cafe and is helping with the gardens at the Little Silver store.
"You can come there and sit down and order at the counter and have it fresh right in front of you," he said. "We're doing prepared food, but we also have a whole cafe menu."
Mumford will offer some of his restaurant's most popular dishes at the cafe.
"There's a lot of my favorites and people's favorites that I tweaked a little bit. It's a little bit more creative than what I was doing," he said. "I want the customers out there that crave the food I was doing to come and help Sickles get off the ground."
Go: Sickles Market is at 1 Harrison Ave. in Little Silver; 732-741-9563, sicklesmarket.com. The Red Bank store is at 200 Monmouth St.

This recipe for cookies has changed a little in its 130+ year history. Originated by my many times Great Grandmother Baker (yes, a cookie recipe by a Grandma Baker; how quaint,) the original name of this cookie was “Monkey ****.” Not joking.
One childhood summer vacation approximately 1985-87, I was going through old recipes at my Grandma’s house (Mom’s Mom) at her kitchen table, and saw the recipe when searching for a different recipe. Writing faded on an old recipe card, I should probably thank whomever named it originally because it caught my attention and I wanted to ask about it.
Asking what the recipe was… well, I tried to describe it instead of saying it. Grandma, not wanting to put her glasses on or Mom, not wanting to walk over to read it, my Grandmother and Mother asked me to simply say the name of the recipe. I told them they weren’t going to like it. “Just say it.” I did. They didn’t hear it the first time due to my having a quieter voice than normal about saying it, so I had to repeat myself louder. There was disbelief on their faces when they heard the title, and I asked if they wanted me to repeat it again. They replied “No,” and immediately put on glasses, walked over, and jointly reviewed the recipe.
I had been in the process of looking at recipes and organizing according to type of recipe and had been talking about what each one was as I went through them until they asked me to do it silently. After they came over, they asked what kind of recipe this was. I said, “I didn’t know. It just said “Monkey ..Stuff” and so I was asking because I didn’t know what it could be.” I had already read the ingredients before mentioning the title, and Mom and Grandma figured out from the directions that the recipe was for cookies. I mentioned that a chocolate cookie recipe with walnuts probably looked like what the title described when they cooked. Little brown piles of… and left it trailing. No one could remember how they tasted or if they’d been made since my Grandma’s childhood. Too intrigued to let it go, we made the recipe.
Preferring not to use cuss words when talking about cookies, we made them without the original walnuts because I can’t stand walnuts and re-named them for the sake of sharing the recipe. Great recipe, bad name. RE-NAME! We came up with some other names, and this stuck because they are cocoa and have a cloud-like texture. Include walnuts if you like.
Here is the “Reformed Version” via Mem herself from a 2004 email to friends:
This recipe has been in my family for 5 generations; it makes rather decadent chocolate cookies that look like poofy little clouds. I like peppermint glaze on them, they are also very good just plain, & cheap to make.
1/2 cup butter
1 cup white granulated sugar
1 large egg
3/4 cup buttermilk or slightly sour milk (To make buttermilk substitute, put 2 T apple cider vinegar in a one cup measure, fill to 3/4 c mark with milk)
1 T vanilla or good imitation
1 3/4 to 2 cups white flour
1 t baking soda
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1 cup chopped nuts–I like walnuts/pecans
Beat butter, sugar & egg with electric mixer until fluffy.
Stir in milk & vanilla.
Add dry ingredients & mix well. Drop by slightly heaping teaspoons
onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in top half of oven at
400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
Variation: Omit cocoa, add 1 t cinnamon, & an extra T of vanilla.
Now you have vanilla clouds. These can be left unfrosted, they are
quite decadent with peppermint or spearmint glaze & sprinkles.
Typically made as part of Christmas or for Church gatherings. Year-round recipe. Makes a few dozen.

Each country has its own cuisine that when you go there, you must immediately discover the unique dishes that friends have shared on social networks. For example, in Korea, there are traditional dishes such as Tokbokki, Kimbap, Kimchi, Japchae or in Vietnam there are Pho, Banh Xeo, Banh Cuon, etc. So what are the dishes in Poland? Let’s discover the delicious Polish dishes that you should not miss.
Pierogi is a dish that was imported from Russia and became popular in Poland. The shape of Pierogi Ruskie is very similar to Vietnamese wonton, but the crust is not fermented, the meat can be sweet or salty depending on preference.
This dish can be eaten with butter, sour cream, steamed, fried or cooked with some other dishes. The Poles love to eat potatoes, so Pierogi is also filled with potatoes and is often served during Christian holidays.
Zapiekanka is a street food in Poland from 1970 to present. It is considered a traditional dish in Southern Poland. Dishes include baguettes, cheese, mushrooms, onions, peppers, cold cuts and sausages.
The way to make this dish is also quite simple when you just need to empty the baguette, spread butter and start decorating the rest on top. This dish is more commonly used in the summer than in the winter, because Zapiekanka must be grilled to melt the cheese and serve with your favorite sauce.
Bigos is considered a specialty of Poland. This dish consists of braised meat, stewed sausage mixed with pickled cabbage. Bigos’ sauce is made from hot beer, honey, cinnamon and cloves.
People will marinate the ingredients together for 10-15 minutes and stew until they have a thick, viscous consistency. This dish usually appears in December to March, because this time in Poland is cold, so using Bigos is the most appropriate.
Paczki has a cooking method similar to Vietnamese donuts, because of its spherical shape, orange color when fried, and powdered sugar coating immediately after draining the oil. The ingredients for making this Paczki are different from Vietnamese donuts. consists of flour, eggs and milk that are kneaded into a sphere.
Paczki cake does not have the same plasticity as Vietnamese donuts because of the lack of plain and sticky rice, so this dish is quite similar to bread. In particular, the inside is made from stewed plum jam combined with wild rose petal jam. This dish has a flowing filling, a unique taste and is suitable for light meals.
If you have the opportunity to set foot in this colorful and happy country. Don’t forget to enjoy all the Polish dishes and let me know in the comments how it tastes.


How to store tea
In order to preserve the taste, it is important to avoid three main things when storing tea leaves; moisture, air, and light. Here is how to store your favourite tea so that you can enjoy its full flavour right to the end.
Storing it in the refrigerator or freezer is a no go.
While many people believe that refrigerators or freezers are suited to storing tea leaves since they are cool and dark, they in fact lead to condensation due to the temperature difference to the outside air. Further, the distinct smell produced by refrigerators and freezers can be transferred to tea leaves. A room temperature location without sunlight is ideal for storage.
Sealed containers to prevent oxidation
When air comes into contact with tea leaves it causes it oxidise, compromising the flavour. While sealing tea leaves in a tea can is ideal, if you don't have one to hand then an airtight food storage bag also works.
Estimated shelf life
If stored properly, sealed tea leaves will retain their flavour for about 10 months, while unsealed ones will last for about 10 days.

It all began with Stella Pamajewon Marshall, Chef Leah Marshall Hannon’s great grandmother. Stella raised her family on the shores of Pickerel River. With only a small isolated general store for supplies, her community foraged, hunted and depended on the abundance mother nature offered them. Stella honed the wisdom and techniques passed down to her from her ancestors, and created comfort in the form of food.
The stories and shared meals passed down within her family made an impression on Chef Leah, and became the inspiration behind Stella’s Eatery. The menu honours the legacy of grandmothers, mothers and daughters gathering around a fire, or a table.
We appreciate our community, farmers and suppliers, celebrate the availability of good locally-grown, organic and fantastic ingredients in Prince Edward County, and strive to continuously learn and discover more about the bounty nature has to offer. Basically, Stella’s is a place you can come to eat good comfort food and enjoy a nice drink. We’re looking forward to getting to know you and feeding you and your loved ones. Come by.

August 21, 1975: Grand Ole Opry member, and on of the original members, Sam McGee died in a tractor accident on his farm in Tennessee.
These edible sweet fruits of the date palm tree make fantastic all-natural sweeteners and sugar options, but they are not just scrumptious. Rather than white flour, this recipe uses fiber-wealthy whole-wheat pastry flour. Despite the fact that fruits tend to be low in calories and helpful for weight loss, not all fruits have the very same nutritional values.
Low-power-dense foods are advisable for those who are trying to shed weight, because they support to fill you up on fewer calories. When you consider of dates, you may consider of the dried fruits, but you can also consume fresh dates. Refined grains, such as white bread and pasta, have calories but supply small fiber for a wholesome digestive tract.
Medjool dates have a wonderful amount of dietary fiber, supplying you with 27% of the recommended everyday allowance. They help in wholesome weight obtain and market eye, teeth, and bone wellness. Add fresh fruit or a healthier fruit smoothie with frozen fruit and soy milk to start off your day.


My boys eat a lot. My days begin with my own exercise and is followed by making breakfast and lunches. When they are in school I get a few hours to work and do family chores, but the moment they get home I don't think I actually leave the kitchen till bed time. I'm serious. My husband and I are vegan and our boys are vegetarian. Boy 1 and I are gluten-free due to celiac disease but Boy 2 and Daddy are not. We've tried to cut out the dairy cheese and replace it with a nut cheeze, but so far we are unsuccessful with their accustomed taste buds. It's progress in the right direction.
When it comes to feeding my boys, I think I've finally figured it out so they don't walk in the kitchen every five minutes complaining of hunger. It's starts with breakfast.
Boy 1: Avocado Sandwich and either a sliced apple or pear
Boy 2 Jelly Sandwich or Cheesey bread and either sliced apple or pear
Boy 1: I pack him sliced apple and cheesey bread - 3 pieces of gluten-free cheesey bread, sliced up
Boy 2: His preschool cooks him lunch
After school Snack: If I have time I prepare a snack before I pick them up from school so they have something when they get home.
Snack 1: Smoothie - frozen strawberries, banana, 1 date, tblsp of cocoa powder, tblsp of hemp seed, 1/2 tblsp of Rich Roll's Plant Power powder, almond milk.
Snack 2: Vegetables - I cut up carrots, celery, or whatever vegetables I have. Boy 2 dips veggies in hummus.
Snack 3 (if needed): Tortilla chips and fresh salsa
Dinner: Anything from my "The Oh How She Glows" cookbook. Boy 1 doesn't like a ton of sauces, so before I mix everything up in a salad or soup or whatever, I leave a portion out for him. Boy 2 eats everything.
Dessert: Sliced apple with almond or peanut butter
And that's how I feed my boys!

Although aligned in the same industry, these degrees are quite different areas of study. Culinary Arts study is heavily focused on cooking techniques, food service and professional kitchen management, while Hospitality (including Hotel Management) is like a business degree with focus on the hospitality industry needs.
Chefs oversee all food preparation and supervise the staff preparing all meals. They are essentially the bosses of the kitchen, creating unique recipes and planning menus. Chefs also manage the inventory of the kitchen (supplies, ingredient freshness). They can be responsible for the hiring and supervision of cooks and inspection of work areas and equipment. Sanitation control is also something a chef will oversee.
Caterers prepare meals at an offsite location and often serve large crowds at social events such as weddings, fundraisers or corporate events. They meet with clients to discuss and arrange menu items and determine how the meal is presented at events. Caterers frequently work with Event Planners to create contracts and develop menu ideas based on each clients’ specific needs and wants.
After receiving your Hospitality Associate’s or Hospitality Bachelor’s degree, becoming a hotel manager may be the job for you! Hotel Managers are responsible for managing all hotel employees and for overseeing the planning, marketing, coordinating and administering of hotel services such as catering and accommodation facilities. Rapid career progression is possible quickly in this field, with many opportunities worldwide.
An event planner helps plan and design an event within the clients’ budget and time frame. They work with clients on a one-to-one basis to organize facilities and provide event details such as décor, catering, entertainment, transportation, and all other needs including promotional material and invitee lists.
Other career possibilities for someone holding a culinary diploma include Sous Chef, Banquet Chef, Pastry Chef, and Food Production Manager. It takes approximately two years to complete a culinary or hospitality certificate, and another two years for a bachelor’s degree.


4 C. crushed fresh berries
4 1/2 tbsp Ball® RealFruit™ Classic Pectin
3 C. of sugar
6 Ball® 8 oz (Half-Pint) Jars
1 Ball® Canner with Canning Rack, or large stockpot
Ball® Utensil Kit (includes funnel, headspace tool, and jar lifter)
8 qt. saucepan
1 Wooden Spoon (for stirring)
Wooden cutting board
Find out what you need to know to get your jars ready before using them.
Fill a large saucepan, stockpot, or canner halfway with water. Be sure your canning rack is resting on the rim of the pot or on the bottom of the canner. If you are not using a canner, you can place the tops of the lids at the bottom of your pot to allow for water to get underneath. Turn up the heat to warm your jars.
If a glass stove top is present, you should take precautions.
Place one layer of berries in a 9x13 dish. Crush berries with a potato masher or fork. Remove crushed berries & place in a measuring cup or bowl. Repeat until you have 4 C. prepared crushed berries.
Combine berries and pectin in an 8 qt saucepan. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Add 3 C. of sugar, stirring to dissolve. Return the mixture to a full rolling boil. Boil hard for 1 minute, and keep stirring constantly.
Using the Ball® jar lifter, remove one hot jar at a time, emptying the water inside the jar as you lift. Place hot jar on a wooden cutting board or dish towel, for safety.
Fill the mixed berry jam into a hot jar, using a funnel. Be careful not to overfill the jars and use a towel to hold the hot jar steady.
Fill until you’re left with 1/4 inch headspace. Remove extra air from the jars with the small, flat end of the headspace tool or a silicone spatula.
Repeat until all jars are filled, with lids on properly, and back in your canner or pot. If you don’t have enough jam to fill a jar, DO NOT process that jar. Just let it cool, put it in the fridge, and consume within 2 weeks.
Lower the canning rack with jars into the water, until the jars are covered by 1-2 inches of water. Place the lid on your pot and adjust heat to bring the water to a full rolling boil. Process the jars for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Turn off heat, remove the lid off the canner or pot, and let jars stand for 5 minutes in the hot water. Remove jars with Jar Lifter and cool.
Recipes are written for altitudes up to 1,000 feet above sea level. The chart below should help you adjust your process time.
1,001 - 3,000
3,001 - 6,000
6,001 - 8,000
8,001 - 10,000
Leave jars undisturbed for 12-24 hours. DO NOT retighten bands, this may interfere with the sealing. Do the flex test and then wipe the outside of the jars and lids. Label with date canned and store in a cool, dry, dark place for up to 1 year!

Pick the Trentino apple, the most delicious of all
he Trentino apple is the symbol of a typical product, rich in taste, tradition, and flavor. Small farms in Trentino grow apples according to organic, biodynamic or, mostly, integrated production methods. The total absence of chemical treatments, and the respect for natural biological rhythms, make this apple so genuine to the point of being appreciated throughout the entire national territory and internationally, as well. Trentino cuisine uses apples for some of its most typical desserts, such as apple strudel and “smorn”, a sweet omelet made from apples, eggs, flour, and sugar.


Community Supported Agriculture – the minimalist way to grocery shop.
What is a CSA?
First of all – What is a CSA? Community Supported Agriculture is a partnership between the community and local farmers. Before the growing season begins CSA members purchase “shares” for the coming year’s harvest. The farmers receive the money ahead of time to put towards seeds, supplies, field prep and everything else that a farm needs before the first veggie is harvested. The term Community Supported Agriculture is key here – it’s the community that helps the farm get started, and in exchange the community shares the produce later in the season. It’s a win/win for both the farms and the community, and the model has been growing quickly.
Why CSAs are good for you:
When you are a member of a CSA you get your fruits and vegetables at the peak of their season. This means they pack the highest amount of nutrients and the least amount of time in storage. Studies have shown that fresh produce begins losing beneficial nutrients soon after being picked. Most CSAs harvest their produce the week or even the day before pickup – it’s hard to find that kind of freshness at the supermarket.
Though not all Community Supported Agriculture is Certified Organic, most farms are, and those that are not often use organic practices (meaning they use organic methods even though they may not be certified). That means the food your are picking up is not sprayed with pesticides fungicides, herbicides or any other kind of “cides” we don’t know about. The food you get from a CSA is grown with less chemicals and more love. If you’re unsure about what methods a farm uses, just ask, most farmers are happy to explain the methods and are proud that they use less chemicals.
While the weekly trip to the farm may seem like a large time commitment at first, when you compare making a list, driving to the grocery store, picking out your produce, waiting to checkout, in the end it’s a timesaver. Most CSAs have either a Box Share where members simply show up and pickup their box of vegetables or Market Style where members pick out what they want from that week’s harvest. Either way members can be in and out (though most like to enjoy the farm) in less time than it would take to shop for the same amount of produce at the store. Because you’ve already paid for it, there’s no transaction, just grab & go. Some CSAs even have drop off points in large urban centers to bring the goods right to you!
Great for the family
Where does food come from? Most kids think from a store, dropped off from a truck, maybe from a factory somewhere? Usually the train of thought ends there and the source of our food remains a mystery. Joining a CSA links families and especially children with the source of their food. Seeing where produce is grown, picking fruit off the trees, meeting the farmers who work to make fresh food available is an experience every child should have. CSAs help teach kids (and adults too) that food should not be wasted, that everything we eat needs resources and hard work to grow. Creating a relationship with fresh food only helps encourage proper nutrition and eating habits in children.
Eat the veggies – eat all the veggies!
Kohlrabi. What on earth is it? What do you do with it? If you’re in a grocery store you keep walking, but what if you get five pounds of it as part of a share? Answer: you get creative. Being in a CSA forces you to try different fruits and veggies you normally wouldn’t. Sound like a pain? It’s time to branch out! You can find a recipe for almost anything online and you might just discover your new favorite dish!
A local CSA farm in Western New York makes a point to include items you might not see in the grocery store. Bree Bacon and Rich Woodbridge of McCollum Orchards include lesser known items such as Bok-Choy in their harvest. “We started growing Bok-Choy for the taste” says Bree, “It’s very versatile, you can put it into just about anything, people who try Bok-Choy really enjoy it and come back for more.” Another item grown at McCollum Orchards is Ground Cherries, unheard of to most people but quickly became a favorite with kids in the farm’s U-Pick area – included with their CSA membership. During the height of Ground Cherry season the rows are full of kids and parents filling baskets with the husk-wrapped sweetness. Heirloom tomatoes are also a huge hit at McCollum orchards. The striking colors, deep rich taste are like nothing you’ll find at a store.
Gentle on the land
The land is not made to support just one kind of plant, especially acres and acres of it, year after year. It’s just not natural. Think about prairies, wetlands, forests, a collection of different species that live together, each contributing to the ecosystem. CSAs grow a huge variety of plants on the same piece of land. It’s common for one CSA to plant and harvest over 120 different varieties of fruits and vegetables. Constantly rotating and changing the crop plan and often planting Cover Crops, plants specifically to help rebuild the soil structure. Practices that reflect with a more natural way of working the land is a cornerstone of most CSAs, and one that should not be overlooked.
Shrink-wrapped tomatoes shipped from Mexico. There is nothing environmentally friendly about that. CSAs have the shortest supply chain in agriculture – usually a few hundred yards from the field to the barn. The resources it takes to ship our produce from big farms in air conditioned trucks, unloaded and stored in grocery stores is astronomical. The lowest impact produce you can buy is the one grown nearby.
Why it’s good for the Farmers
Let’s not forget about the farmers! Farmers benefit from Community Supported Agriculture in many ways. CSAs supply farms with needed funds to get going in the spring, yes – seeds cost money, especially when you calculate produce in the tons. So a farm gets money early in the season, they in turn use that money and focus on doing what farmers do best – growing amazing fruits and vegetables.
How do you find a CSA?
- Ask a friend – more and more people are joining CSAs and would be happy to share their experiences.
- Visit a Farmers market – vendors at farmers markets may also offer CSA options, ask around, most would be glad to point you in the right direction.
- Use a directory like the one from CSA Day
CSAs come in many different shapes and sizes. Seasons can run anywhere from 12-20 weeks or more. There are even Winter CSAs for root vegetables, hearty greens, southern citrus etc. There are flower shares, fruit shares, veggie shares, and even Herbal CSAs! No matter what route you choose, this year consider joining a Community Supported Agriculture program in your local area. You’ll be helping support local farmers, bringing in wonderful produce into your home, helping your family learn and connect with their source of food.


Today is book launch day, and I’m seeing the fruits of my publicists’ labors for the first time–reviews, articles, guest posts, all kinds of stuff. It’s fun, and I will by-God link to every single post, but I also thought it might be nice to take a moment and talk about something that isn’t book related.
I like to cook. It’s one of my main hobbies. People have to eat, right? Also, there’s only so much you can say about summer movies. So I’m going to blog about food occasionally.
Here’s a simple, inexpensive recipe that’s ridiculously tasty and not too bad for your arteries. It’s called Picadillo. I never heard of it until a couple years ago, but apparently it’s a Latin American staple. It turns out to be dead simple to make at home.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- ½ green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/3 cup green olives, chopped
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- 1 8 oz. can diced tomatoes
- 2 envelopes Goya sazon seasoning (I found it at the local supermarket with the taco stuff, YMMV)
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 tsp white sugar
- Salt and black pepper to taste.
Heat the oil in a largish skillet. Sautee the garlic, onion and green pepper until translucent, about five minutes. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in the olives, capers, raisins, diced tomatoes, Sazon. Cook for ~10 minutes, then stir in sugar and salt.
The whole thing takes maybe 20 minutes to put together, plus another ten or so for cooking time. Also, it seems to be one of those recipes where it gets better after it sits overnight.
Serve over rice. I like mine with a little Cholula sauce.
Variations and Notes
Picadillo is apparently one of those recipes where everybody’s grandmother has a slight variation. I saw a couple versions that used potatoes—I haven’t tried that, but it sounds good. You can adjust the raisins up or down—personally, I think ¼ cup is too much, but that’s a pretty common amount. Peas and carrots often make an appearance.
If you can’t find commercial Sazon packets at your supermarket, you can approximate it with equal parts coriander, cumin, paprika, garlic powder and salt.

This is our first time trying this pizza. We ordered the goat cheese and it was fantastic! We ordered the 20” for two. Definitely forgot to measure ahead haha. The crust is the perfect thickness, texture, and flavor. The toppings were fantastic. Honestly, I never expect any pizza place to have a respectable amount of chicken, but piggie pies proved me wrong. They had a generous amount of chicken, as well as the rest of the toppings. Me and my husband will definitely come back!
Great pizza, we always get plain pizzas, but they have a huge choice of fancy pies. I also got an order of cheese ravioli, with cheese bread. Bonus is you can get beer and wine! The atmosphere is very chill. We hit the restaurant at a time that we had the place to ourselves. Very good pizza!!
The food is amazing here! I got a Chicken and Spinach Pizza and Chicken Alfredo, it was so good. I’ve never had anything like it. It’s worth the visit, while in Dallas.
