Weblog from some of our Grower’s:
Bean Man: Thank you for the great response to our recent Ready to Mix Pizza Crusts, Buttermilk Pancakes, Refried Beans and Black Bean Dip. As promised, this week’s market will show our 4th and final Pizza Crust Mix – Cassava and Arrowroot – this package contains 2 packets each with the dry ingredients to make a medium crust 15-16" pizza with a tinge of garlic that does not overpower the topping. As with our other Pizza Crust Mixes, this is another “Bake, Top, Bake” mix in which you supply the wet ingredients as well as the toppings of your choice.
As always, we have our Fresh Beans, Mixes (Chili anyone?), Gluten Free Flours and Gluten Free Scottish Oatmeal (8 minutes on the stovetop). Look for Ready to Mix Sourdough Bread as well as some healthy soup surprises in February. In the meantime, stay warm and safe!
