Eric discovered this monthly subscription service called Mantry, which we have gotten for a couple of months now. Let me just say - awesome. They send you a monthly crate of curated artisan foodstuffs from all over the United States, & everything we've gotten so far has been so good & so so cool. Last month's crate contained the ingredients for a pizza party, which we just got around to making. It included Classic Red Sauce from Jar Goods in New Jersey, Pizza Flour from Hayden Flour Mills in Arizona, & Smoked Pepperoni from Vermont Smoke & Cure in, you guessed it, Vermont. Not to mention, this all comes with a bunch of other delicious bits & pieces, like Lemon Sugar Cookies from Grey Ghost Bakery in Charleston, a jar of Pesto that Eric has demolished on breakfast sandwiches, & Proscuitto from Daniele in RI.
We had a lot of fun making these pizzas. Mine was Hawaiian (don't tell me you don't like pineapple on your pizza, blasphemer!) & Eric made his with pepperoni, basil, & avocado.
They turned out DELICIOUS! I think homemade pizza night is a new thing around here. & of course, Eric enjoyed with a favorite beer :).
Did I mention that everything in the crate is full-sized? None of this pansy sample-size nonsense. It's a bit on the pricey side, but so worth it if you enjoy making really good food at home. & hey, you're supporting hard-working, quality, made-in-the-USA artisans. Not too shabby.
Digging my first attempt at food photography, haha! Yeah, I'll keep practicing. Palm, meet face.
xo Chlo.
