Kale Salad with Maple-Dijon Vinaigrette
Winter kale is delightfully crunchy and packed with nutritional value, but it often needs a little something to let it shine.

MAPLE-DIJON VINAIGRETTE RECIPE
Beet Salad With Goat Cheese and Tuscan Vinaigrette
True to the term “rustic” we roast these beets in their jacket until perfectly tender before peeling, slicing, and tossing them in our Gateway to the North Maple Garlic Seasoning. The arugula salad base is light and springy, even for winter—tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette seasoned perfectly with our Tuscan Olive Oil Seasoning.
Brussels Sprouts Cacio e Pepe
Inspired by the classic Roman pasta dish, this recipe celebrates the perfect pairing of freshly cracked peppercorns and shaved parmesan cheese. Freshly cracked pepper really is the key to this preparation. Be sure to pick up some of our whole Tellicherry Peppercorns, or treat yourself to our super premium Kampot Black Peppercorns.
Tagliatelle alla Salsa di Zucca
Pumpkins take the spotlight in the fall, but are a key player throughout the winter menu. This pasta recipe brings together the typically sweet pairing of acorn squash and Nutmeg with savory garlic confit, salty parmesan cheese, and aromatic Black Peppercorns.
Carrot-Ginger Soup with Grains of Paradise
This savory carrot soup is like a comfort blanket in a bowl. Grains of Paradise are a cousin of ginger, making a perfect pairing for the blended carrots, onion, and garlic. The spice has a unique flavor that is sweet and peppery, with hints of hazelnut, cocoa butter and citrus.
