Mushrooms are an great way to make an impact on your menu. How can you add that meaty umami flavor, great texture, and moisture to your dishes? That's right, mushrooms.
Mushroom's umami characteristic is particularly helpful in boosting the flavor in plant-based dishes as well. 🍄 They also make a wonderful vessel for stuffing, which are a perfect bite for the holiday season.
Portabella, Cremini, and White Button mushrooms– believe it or not– are the same mushroom: Agaricus bisporus.
Whichever mushroom you choose, they are all packed with umami and can make your dishes delicious.

Looking for an elegant dessert? Look no further than pears. 🍐 They can be prepared in a myriad of ways.
The higher heat of the oven brings out their sweetness when baked into a tart, and the cavity is perfect for roasting and stuffing. They are also show-stoppers when poached, which make a perfect dessert for vegan and non-vegan guests, alike.
Don't overlook the delicious simplicity and elegance of pears this holiday season!

It's Wallpaper Wednesday...and all this year it's been all things local. This month: Hawai’i. Did you know, we work with over 85 local farmers and artisans in our Hawai’i region!
Hawai'i is known for its local pineapple crop worldwide, but there are a variety of other commodities that are farmed across the islands.
Most local crops can be grown year-round as the temperatures do not fluctuate severely, and each island has microclimates that influence the crops. Warmer temperatures in the summer, shorter days in the winter, or wetter conditions during hurricane season can all affect yield, quality, and availability, but there is a growing presence of greenhouse, aquaponic, and hydroponic practices.
