New oils for your pantry

McEvoy Ranch
In traditional Tuscan style, this vibrant, green oil is bottled immediately after harvest, without filtration. Aromas of parsley, cut grass and fresh basil and flavors of artichoke and green olive accompany a long, distinctly peppery finish. For a truly seasonal experience, this new oil should be enjoyed within three or four months of the harvest.

La Tourangelle
Pan Asian Stir Fry Oil is packed with flavors of stir-fried onion, garlic and ginger for the quick creation of a wide variety of Asian dishes. Thai Wok Oil, filled with aromatic Thai basil and lemongrass flavors, conveniently adds layers of complexities to tasty Southeast Asian style dishes.

New for breakfast -- or anytime

Bo's Best Pancake Mixes
The pretty packaging isn't the only thing that's new. Bo's Best has added to their flavors of pancake mixes and will soon also add a gluten-free mix. In addition, there are scone mixes and butter mixes (above) to make breakfast or an afternoon coffee or tea break much more enjoyable.

Cheese is popular for any part of a menu for good reason. It's one of the most versatile foods, eaten alone, with toppings like those below, with charcuterie, or incorporated into other dishes.

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese
Toma (above) is the newest cheese from this family group of cheesemakers on Tomales Bay in Marin County. The buttery flavor and subtle, grassy�tang finish of this unique farmstead table cheese make Point Reyes Toma perfect for snacking or melting into your favorite dish.

Sierra Madre Grocery Co.
