Ballard Bee Co.

Crafted By: Corky Luster

Ballard, WA

This wildflower honey is the mainstay of Ballard Bee Company's offerings. Varying in color from light gold to a rich dark amber the profile can shift from batch to batch and features a range of rich creamy flavors from dark cherry and spices to a bold jasmine.

Given its ethereal properties, this honey is best used as a complement to other tastes where is wont be overwhelmed. We suggest pairing with an aged white cheddar and chevre on a cheese board; drizzled on waffles and biscuits; whisked into a herb-loaded dressing; or used with lemon and rosemary for a glaze ideal for roast chicken.

Bluebird Grain Farms

Crafted By: Sam + Brooke Lucy

Methow Valley, WA

This ancient style of bulgur is literally split in half from Bluebird Grain Farms' whole grain emmer. Traditionally known as Farro Spezzato in Italy it cooks in 1/3 the time (20 minutes) and yields a light, airy cooked grain with tremendous flavor and soft texture.

Cook and use in a refreshing summer salad with feta, watermelon, olives, and herbs; add to soups for a boost of hearty texture; sauté with olive oil, fresh shallots and capers to compliment a main dish such as skirt steak; or replace white rice for a health-minded option.

Theo Chocolate

Crafted By: Joe Whinney

Seattle, WA

"There's nothing simple about this simple pleasure" states Theo Chocolate and they couldn't be more right! Made with cocoa beans sourced from across the globe to create this blend of flavors. It's a deliciously rich, complex and seductive taste experience.

Eating the bar alone is a joy in itself but we also love using the 70% blend in a multitude of savory and sweet preparations. Try melting and adding a touch of chili for a jam-packed ganache; add to a traditional mole ideal for braised chicken or summer squash; make homemade chocolate ice cream; or even to add depth to a tart and tangy BBQ sauce.
