Smoked trout is wonderful to set out for guests at the beginning of a dinner party and also perfect for preparing phenomenal fish pates and mousses. We absolutely love the trout’s cool, smoky flavor and it’s flaky, yet moist texture. 

These trout fillets by Ducktrap are gently smoked to retain their natural moisture and texture. Their distinctive mild taste makes our trout the ideal selection for introducing the pleasures of smoked seafood to an uninitiated palate. Started in 1978, Ducktrap River of Maine is an all-natural smokehouse located on the coast of Maine with a strong commitment to producing premium quality smoked seafood.  Ducktrap sources premium-grade seafood, uses traditional smoking techniques and combines the natural flavor of custom brining recipes with the savory smoke from local apple, cherry, maple and oak woods.

Item of the Day: Salchichon Iberico Salame

By | Chef's Feed, Item of the Day, Meats, What Chefs Want

Iberico salchichon sausages are simply seasoned with sea salt and black pepper and hung to cure in the cool mountain air for several weeks. Unlike Iberico chorizo, salchichon sausages are not seasoned with smoked paprika, so the pure Iberico pork flavor shines through in each delicious bite! Slice thinly and serve with a crisp white wine from Spain.

Item of the Day: Whole Peeled Organic Tomatoes

By | Chef's Feed, Item of the Day, What Chefs Want

These hearty tomatoes are canned fresh with a dash of salt and basil to keep them as gorgeous as the day they came off the vine. Use them as a base to sauces, soups, and more! 

When Robert DiNapoli partnered with James Beard award-winning chef Chris Bianco of Pizzeria Bianco, foodies were curious what canned creation the two had up their sleeves. These tasty plum tomatoes are canned without using calcium chloride to preserve them–that means cooking with them is like cooking with fresh fruit from the vine. Each batch is organically grown and harvested in Yolo County, California.
