The wild mushroom powder is a great spice to have on hand and has many uses. One of the most common is as a rubber on meat. Beef rubbed with the powder, seared and cooked in a pot roast is fabulous. You can also make flavored butter or dip so you can easily spread it on toast, steak or fish, melt it on top of an omelet or potatoes, or use it as a dressing for plain spaghetti/pasta or garlic and oil risotto. These powders are also great meat substitutes as they are high in protein. You can flavor your vegetarian/vegan dishes with healthy mushroom powder. It can also be used in smoothies, soups, stews, and as a secret sauce ingredient.

What is Pamako Olive Oil?

Pamako is a high-phenolic extra virgin olive oil produced from ancient olive trees in Crete. It has received more than 350 international awards and is known for its exceptionally high polyphenol content and distinctive flavor. It is considered the most phenolic EVOO on the market.

Can I cook with Pamako olive oil, or should it only be used raw?

Both! Because of its high antioxidant content, Pamako olive oil is stable when heated and can be used for cooking. However, many people prefer to use it raw over salads, vegetables, bread, or finished dishes to fully enjoy its aroma and flavor.

Why is my honey crystallizing or becoming solid?

That’s actually a sign of premium quality! Raw, unpasteurized honey naturally crystallizes over time. Simply place the jar in a bowl of warm water (make sure it's not boiling) and stir to bring it back to a smooth, runny texture.
