Mother's Day Ordering, Black Sable, and Rancho Gordo

 

Hey Y'all, I'm so excited that one of my favorite fish is in the stores today. Sable! It's a gorgeous, creamy, delicious, captivating, scrumptious, luscious, heavenly fish. (Thank you, Thesaurus.com)

If you love this fish like I do, call them up and put your name on it because it'll go quick! Black cod is the nickname for this fish but it is not a cod at all. Sable has an extremely high fat content, being caught in the cold waters of the north Pacific, and has as much Omega-3 as wild salmon. When cooked, it has a texture very similar to Chilean Sea Bass. Here's my favorite recipe for black cod. It takes a bit of prep so you have to plan in advance and gather some ingredients. Get your fish today and have the best meal ever out of your kitchen on Sunday evening. https://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-nobu-miso-marinated-black-cod-117238

Rancho Gordo Beans Have you tried the Rancho Gordo beans that are in all of our stores? Like heirloom tomatoes, these are beautiful and more flavorful than boring grocery store beans. They are not mass produced beans but come from California, Oregon, Washington, New Mexico and Mexico. Soak them in the morning and have a delicious "New World" dinner this evening. Fun fact: they are celebrating 20 years in business this year! Check out this amazing recipe that they sent out this week. Any Rancho Gordo medium or light bean will work.
