Jarcuterie

As we continue to navigate the challenges presented by the pandemic, the desire to have safe gatherings is still on our minds  The pre-pandemic potluck spreads with their casseroles, pots of soup, and other shared dishes seem to lack the usual appeal. Thankfully, avoiding shared plates of food doesn’t necessarily mean saying goodbye to the charcuterie board. Thanks to this fun, single-serving spin on the classic, known as “jarcuterie”, you can serve up all of your favorite trappings of a traditional charcuterie platter at your next COVID-safe gathering. You’ll find some of our favorite jarcuterie fodder in the weekly sale from May 19th – 25th, including local Maplebrook Farm Ciliegine, so grab some skewers, a few jars, and get your jarcuterie on!

Pan Bagnat

Nobody likes a soggy sandwich, so when we came across this recipe for a tuna sandwich that actually improves as it sits in your lunchbox or picnic basket, we were excited to give it a try. According to recipe creator Melissa Clark, “the longer it sits (up to 24 hours), the better it gets. The flavors marry, the oil and tomato juices mingle, the anchovies dissolve into the bread and all of it coalesces into a sophisticated whole that stays intact when you bite in.” Clark also notes that pan bagnats can be a catchall for whatever vegetables are on hand: crisp hot and sweet peppers, fennel, cucumber, string beans, peas, and scallions all make excellent additions. You’ll find many of the ingredients featured in our back-to-school-themed Weekly Sale from August 19th – 25th, so it’s a perfect time to give it a try!

The time has finally come when many of us can once again enjoy small, safe in-person gatherings to celebrate special occasions and enjoy good food together.

Thankfully, avoiding shared plates of food doesn’t necessarily mean saying goodbye to the charcuterie board. Thanks to this fun, single-serving spin on the classic, known as “jarcuterie”, you can serve up all of your favorite trappings of a traditional charcuterie platter at your next COVID-safe gathering. You’ll find some of our favorite jarcuterie fodder in the weekly sale from May 20th – 26th, including local Maplebrook Farm Ciliegine, so grab some skewers, a few jars, and get your jarcuterie on!
