Peep Parade

Peep Parade

Nothing says "spring" like a pastel Peep parade. These rustic cuties are fun and super easy to make. Kids young and old will have fun messing around with the powdered sugar and sticky cut-outs. Plan ahead for parade day, as each batch of marshmallows needs to dry overnight before cutting. Our go-to marshmallow recipe comes together quickly and note you'll need to make three batches if you want to include all the colors and flavors shown here. Each batch makes one 9x11 tray.We combined Beet Powder and almond extract for our first batch and they were incredible! For batch number two, we combined Matcha and peppermint. The third batch was a pairing of Turmeric and vanilla. Add more spice to increase the color - we used 1-2 teaspoons in the marshmallow mix for these beautiful pastels. Choose cookie cutters without too many nooks and crannies because the marshmallows are sticky, and dust the sides a bit as you cut them out for easier handling and to keep them from sticking together. We can't claim the health benefits of the spices will cancel out the sugar, but they are beautiful and delicious!

Valentine's Pepper Pocky

Valentine's Pepper Pocky

Pocky is fun to eat, fun to make, and fun to spice! White chocolate bloomed pretty in pink with the addition of Beet Powder, kissed with a sprinkle of Pink Peppercorn. Set aside a little bit of white chocolate before you tint the whole batch so you can add a fancy swirl of white over the whole cookie.We chose dark chocolate with Black Tellicherry Smoked Peppercorn as the second flavor and the smoke-chocolate-pepper combination was fantastic. Pile them on a platter, dip them in cocoa and enjoy. The homemade Pocky are irresistible.

Pink Chai Nog

Pink Chai Nog

10 min

Happy Nog Season! Eggnog is traditional this time of year, and spicing the custard with our Pink Chai came naturally. Full of holiday favorites like cinnamon, ginger and cardamom, it's a fresh and welcome twist for this favorite drink. The rose, rooibos and pink peppercorns add a floral sweet finish and the festive pop of color on top completes the drink. One sip of this frothy delight will put anyone in a holiday spirit.Thick and creamy, our Pink Chai Nog is made with cooked custard so it has a longer shelf life than the raw version and that also makes it booze-optional. A cooked custard makes for a thicker nog and you can adjust the consistency to suit your taste with an extra splash milk or preferred alcohol. We added a splash of local bourbon from our friends at Oola Distillery. Give it a quick stir with a cassia stick and holiday garnishing will be a breeze. The warm spices of chai lend themselves to all sorts of holiday applications. Once made, think outside the nog and experiment. Use it to sweeten up your coffee or try drizzling it over bread pudding. This velvety sweet cream deserves to be poured all over festive favorites.

Floral Chia Seed Pudding

Floral Chia Seed Pudding

This go-to summer breakfast has infinite possibilities. We used chia seeds which are full of protein, antioxidants and fiber. Once they soak overnight in liquid, they plump up and have a tapioca-like texture that is both filling and easy to build on other flavors. Here we brewed some Floral Sonnets tea, adding a touch of honey and some Beet Powder, resulting in the beautiful magenta layer for this parfait. For the royal blue-colored pudding, we used Butterfly Pea Flower with almond milk. The next day build your parfait with the layers by adding seasonal berries and yogurt. This parfait cup will taste of chamomile, ginger and cinnamon, which bring warmth to the tangy yogurt. It's both festive and a great way to start any breakfast!

Beet Sourdough

Beet Sourdough

Spring 2020, the sourdough frenzy started. I had very little bread baking experience and flour was scarce. There was no sourdough starter in sight, but we were in lockdown. After a legit learning curve, and in desperate need of a hobby, sourdough ended up giving me all of the bread confidence I needed. So grateful! Sourdough truly has a mind of its own, but that makes it fun to work with. It is rewarding and well worth the patience. At my peak of sourdough creativity, I set out to make a beet sourdough loaf. Beet puree made a bright colored dough but it was messy and caused mayhem with the starter, resulting in an epic fail. Enter the secret ingredient, beet powder. Rusty red earthy layers emerged to compliment the tang of my starter. The dried powder is free from moisture, making for less interference with the starter and easier clean up. The awesome layers created while making the folds in your boule are gorgeous. It's not too late to dive deep into making bread and sourdough.

Tandoori Roasted Chicken

Tandoori Roasted Chicken

It may not be grilled over an open flame or cooked in a traditional clay oven, but this Tandoori Roasted Chicken is guaranteed to brighten your January. We've brought sunshine into the kitchen in the depth of winter with bright colors and flavors on the table. Our Tandoori chicken is bright in color and in spice. We skipped the red food coloring and went straight for the Beet Powder, combined with Tandoori Curry that contains turmeric, to give this dish a stunning presentation. Once cooked the beet powder mellows and adds crispiness to the chicken skin.

Apple Beet Ginger Smoothie

Apple Beet Ginger Smoothie

Beet powder is among the most striking spices we have at the shop. Its vibrant red color is attention grabbing, and transfers well into any dish it is used in, with little hassle. People either love or hate beets, but even their most dedicated supporters will admit that they can be messy. Their beautiful color comes at a price, and we've accidentally stained cutting boards while working with them more than once. Beet powder delivers the same color at a fraction of the work, albeit in powder form.Using it in smoothies is a simple and fun way to experiment with beet powder. The fruit in this smoothie recipe is balanced with the peppery fresh ginger and refreshing coconut water. It's vibrant and refreshing, a perfect blend for a morning on the go!

Orange, Cinnamon and Cranberry Tart

Orange, Cinnamon and Cranberry Tart

Spring 2020. I was craving pie. Sadly, I had no flour and no fresh fruit, aside from an old orange. Thus, the Cranberry and Orange Tart was born out of pure necessity. Dried cranberries were used here, but dried tart cherries can easily be substituted. For this, the crust is made out of saltines, and so the sweet-tart-salty complexity is a flavor explosion. Adding a touch of Indonesian cinnamon and ginger powder enhances these flavors. The saltine crust is just fun, and much less labor intensive to make than tart dough. This is what you get when you play with your food!
