02.14.2010 - Nori Local Consumption

The NEWS: We are pleased to announce that we have transitioned from toasted conventional nori sheets to Raw Organic Nori. The less exciting part is that it is coming from China. Earlier this week we located another source from the US and are planning the transition to cut down on food transit.
Yay Raw Nori!


Organic Raw Nori (sourced from RawFoodWorld.com product of China), Local Organic Jersulem Artichoke (Wobbly Cart Farming Collective), Local Organic Beets (Wobbly Cart Farming Collective), Organic Carrots (California), Organic Parsley (California), Local Organic Apple (Filaree Farm), Local Organic Clover Sprouts (Washington), Local Organic Garlic (Pigman's Organic Produce Patch), Organic Ginger (Peru), Local Well Water, Organic Tamari, Organic Raw Sesame Oil, Sundried Organic Raisins (California)

Kale Chips!!

We are sooo pleased to announce that you can now purchase our delicious Kale Chips at the Eastside Olympia Food Co-op! Look for them in the NEW PRODUCT section - near the books.

Each bag contains 1 and 1/4 bunches of Local Organic Greens and I have seen them disappear in one sitting many times!!

So ENJOY your GREENS with a variety of 9 Local Organic Greens (6 types of kale, 2 types of chard, and beet greens) spiced up in 2 different flavors Coconut Curry & Pumpkin Chia!

Local Consumption Apple Nori Rolls

Nori, Local Organic Jerusalem Artichokes (Wobbly Cart), Local Organic Carrots (Boistfort Valley Farm), Local Organic Beets (Pigman's Organic Produce Patch), Local Organic Parsley (Calliope Farm), Local Organic Keepsake Apple (OPMA), Organic Sundried Raisins (California), Organic Ginger (Peru), Local Organic Jim's Silver Garlic (Pigman's Organic Produce Patch), Local Water, Organic Raw Sesame Oil, Organic Tamari

Using the Jerusalem Artichokes has definitely made the Nori rolls sweeter. Jerusalem Artichoke can be juiced and used as a sweetner with a very minimal effect of the glycemic index. We use it as a liquid sweetner in place of agave in recipes due to agaves effects on the body.

I like to have a lot of room to stir my sauce into the carrot and beet spiraled strands, so usually when I eat this I pour it into a larger bowl. I am always amazed how full the bowl is... for a minute!

Lately this is the dish that my toddler is requesting too. Although the one she "makes" is "cauliflower nori and sprouts for you"
