Lots of exciting products in the shops. Especially at this time of the year. Makes cooking and preparing food even more interesting. Here are some of the ones I fancy:
- Ortalli AGED Balsamic Vinegar. This is the first time that I've ever treated myself to a really top quality aged balsamic vinegar. Aged for 12 years, I'm looking forward to trying it.
- Pakco Mango Atchar adds pizzazz to any curry.
- La Costeña Chipotle peppers in Adobo sauce. Hmm, I feel a mexican meal coming on. Must learn to make Mole sauce.
- Cupido chocolate cups. Little chocolate cups that you can use to fill with whatever your heart desires. I'm going to use them for Christmas Eve when I have the whole family round for dinner. Will certainly add some interest to the desert table. Watch this space. I have a great idea. Hope it works out.
- Banditos Pickled Jalapeno peppers. I actually always have a jar of these in the fridge. Great for quesadillas or on toasted sandwiches. Chuck a few into a pasta sauce.
- Sally Williams, a South African brand of Nougat have brought out some delicious chocolate bars made with Belgian chocolate and nougat.
- De Rustica , South African extra virgin olive oil. South Africa produces very high quality olive oil. Many different brands on the market.
- All Gold, green fig preserve. Made in SA. Lovely with cheeses of all kinds and also amazing on pizza.
