Item of the Day – Kenny’s Smoked Gouda

By | Chef's Feed, Item of the Day, What Chefs Want | No Comments

Kenny’s Smoked Gouda

Item 91924 – 1 lb. Block

Item 91923 – 14 lb. Wheel

Traditional farmstead Gouda, with an added smokiness for a bolder experience. Reminiscent of cold winter nights by the fire, this is creamy decadence. Smoky cheeses go really nicely with deep red wines and can add a really nice element when used in cooking. It is a vegetarian secret to add smoked cheeses to dishes to get that bacon-smoke flavor element. Try it in mac and cheese or grated over tacos or in burritos.

St. James Smoked Salmon

Item 48727 – 3-4 lb. side

St. James Smokehouse is proud to be one of Scotland’s few remaining family-owned smokehouses. The traditional smokehouse, along with a new state-of-the-art fresh salmon filleting plant, is located in theRoyal Burgh of Annan, Scotland where a dedicated team of artisanal workers produce premium quality salmon products.
                                   
At St. James Smokehouse, quality and consistency is of upmost  importance. The smoked salmon process starts by sourcing only the finest sustainable Scottish salmon. The custom filleting plant    
enables St James to maintain complete quality control over every batch from the very beginning to the end. The fresh salmon fillets  are hand-cured using a unique blend of pure sea salt and demerara sugar, before being naturally cold smoked over whisky oak chippings. Then each smoked salmon fillet is fully trimmed by hand and vacuum sealed to preserve the flavor. No artificial flavors, nitrates, or preservatives are used and all products are Kosher Certified.
