We have many infused olive oils and balsamic vinegars in both our markets and online, and we’d love you to try them all!
You might already have a recipe in mind for these flavors, but if you’re looking for a little inspiration, we’ve included links to some featured recipes below.
Here are some some recipes we’ve selected to feature this month:
Kale & Chicken Spaghetti Squash Boats with a DIY Tuscan Herb Caesar Dressing
All the flavors of this dish are simply outstanding. Using spaghetti squash is a healthy alternative to using pasta, but we promise you’ll hardly know the difference when you take a bite. Our Tuscan herb infused olive oil is a delicious blend of herbs, sun-dried tomatoes and garlic, and is great to use on everything from salad dressings to marinades.
Springtime Insalata Caprese with Basil Oil and a Strawberry Balsamic Reduction
Caprese is traditionally made with tomatoes, basil, mozzarella, olive oil and maybe some balsamic, but we put a little springtime twist on this easy appetizer and used strawberries with a strawberry balsamic reduction.
This salmon, served with our recipe for Kale & Citrus Salad with Goat Cheese and a Creamy Basil Dressing is a meal that is filled with bright flavors, different textures and a little kick from the jalapeños tucked into the salad. The salmon cooks up in about the same time it takes the balsamic to simmer and reduce, so the who meal comes together in no time.
If you love elotes – and really, who doesn’t – then you’ll love this salad. We use our smoky chipotle oil to add another layer of flavor and a little heat to the dish, too. This is a great side for Taco Tuesday!
This is one of our favorite melons! A typical Honeydew is green inside, but this lemon, a cross between a Honeydew and a Musk melon, has orange flesh inside. Its flavor is like a sweeter Cantaloupe, thanks to its Honeydew heritage.
We work with the Smith family, a fourth-generation farming family who own and operate Turlock Fruit Company, to bring in these and other unique, outstanding melons each summer. We’ve worked with owner Don Smith and his company for over 35 years!
Tune in to hear more from Robbie Sigona, our produce buyer, as he gives tips on selecting a good melon and more. Visit our markets in Palo Alto and Redwood City, California, or find more info at www.sigonas.com.
