Chili Cumin — Flavor Spotlight

Our flavor spotlights are continuing to heat up. Chili Cumin is full of kick and the flavor of choice when looking for rich, full-bodied spice. Mix with orange marmalade and slather on pork tenderloin. Bake or grill. Amazing. Also fantastic drizzled on four-cheese flatbread, your favorite pizza and over freshly baked autumn squash. On breaded hot wings, Chili Cumin creates the perfect sauce. Beer-soaked chili cheese fries are a must for tailgating. Black bean salsa tossed in Chili Cumin, placed atop baked sweet potato rounds make for a healthy, nutritious snack or side.

Fresh Roasted Garlic—Flavor Spotlight

This week we’re spotlighting our Fresh Roasted Garlic Cottonseed Oil. This flavor is all garlic, all the time. Smooth, clean and perfectly balanced, it’s the missing ingredient in garlic bread and unforgettable mashed potatoes. Caesar dressing, barbecue sauce and pesto go from ordinary to flavorful in no time. When the temperature drops, curry sweet corn soup and crawfish bisque deliver warmth right through to your bones. We love the Fresh Roasted Garlic oil in asparagus and gruyere frittatas for breakfast or this peach glazed chicken dinner. On the grill, parsley chicken kabobs, chipotle grilled chicken breast and pork kabobs are mouth-wateringly good. As summer approaches, hot wings become finger-licking delicious when made with Fresh Roasted Garlic Oil....
