Desert Miracle Moroccan Olive Oil!
A little softer and fruity
"I prefer the mellow flavor profile of this oil to the very peppery notes in Italian olive oils. It still has a mild bite and the end... but it’s more of a nibble. It melds nicely with my Mediterranean dishes and is my first choice of oil for finishing sauces or making dressings. I would just like this bottle to be bigger!! Still, a great oil at a good value. "

Balsamic Vinegar
from Modena, Italy
La Vecchia Dispensa 30th-anniversary
"I have been using this for years, and it is wonderful on meats, poultry, fish, salads, fruits, vegetables. The quality of this balsamic is extremely high and comparable to some of the higher priced ones. It's flavor is deep, neither too tart nor too sweet. A fine product. "

French Apricot Jam
Sometimes unrequited love is worth it!
Outstanding!
"I’ve always been a “strawberry” flavor loyalist. My father used to love apricot jam....I decided after visiting Paris in 2019(thank goodness we went when we did) I’d give this apricot jam a try. Far and away the best quality and flavor....went back to reorder and was too late. Sold out. Says it all right? I used it first on a fresh baked lemon ginger scone from a local Seattle area bakery. Have it on pre-order now. ❤️!"

Kishibori Shoyu
1 of only 14 artisan brewers of Japanese soy sauce
A Gem
"This is the real soy sauce, rich tasting and aromatic. The saltiness does not overwhelm, the way commercial soy sauce does. When you try this product, it's hard to go back to all the artificial-tasting ones."

Cold Mountain Dry Rice Koji the secret ingredient!
Easy to use with incredible results
"After hearing about Shio Koji, a lot, it was time to give it a try. With Cold Mountain Koji it was as simple as adding the Koji rice, some water and salt. After 10 days +1 it was ready. Since then I have tried it on and in just about everything. Fish, meats, vegetables, anywhere I would normally add a dash of salt, including on my eggs. The effect has ranged from subtle to profound. This is my new secret ingredient. Combine it with a good soy sauce for even more effect in stir fry or fried rice. Marinate meats before grinding them into sausage or even in burgers. The possibilities are many. If you are into fermenting then definitely give this a try. You will be back for seconds..."

Smooth Order
"My order arrived in a timely manner. Shipping was fast. No issues with the packaging. I look forward to fermenting the rice and cooking with it in the coming weeks. Helpful instructions are included in the packaging."

Wild-Caught Canned Tuna From the Northwest
I want to tell you a wonderful fish story....click the link below to read the story ...
Best Canned Tuna Ever *****
"I’ve tried many canned tunas, and this one is the best. It has a fresh mild flavor, with a firm flakey texture. Most canned tunas are more water than fish; a very fishy waterlogged mess in a can. This problem simply did not exist. With most canned tunas I’ve had, the only way to enjoy them is drain and squeeze out all of the water and turn it into a tuna salad. Lummi Island tuna was so good, I could enjoy it straight from the can. Lummi Island Tuna is delicious and I highly recommend it."

Cocoa Powder 22% to 24% cocoa butter!
Wow! *****
"Was using various permutations of King Arthur Cocoas. Just tried this in my usually very good cocoa brownies. I could smell and taste the difference immediately. Revelation! Will never use another cocoa. This is THE BEST!"

"For the breadth and quality of its offerings, nothing equals ChefShop.com. In addition to well-chosen examples of an Italian kitchen's staples... there are excellent products from other parts of the world and, in season, fresh salmon from the Northwest, plus an item that has all but disappeared from neighborhood markets, genuinely tree-ripened, sugary fruits."
