Looking back on our year, we launched several major enhancements this year.
- new shopping platform and website
- key personnel changes and additions
- more mobile-friendly newsletter format
- this month we are finalizing the improvements of our inventory, warehousing and distribution efforts.
Thank you for your patience and loyalty as we worked through the bumps in the road that come with change. We are excited about 2016 and look forward to delighting you with our friendly service, and enhanced availability of the quality products you have come to expect.

Adding Seaweed to Food Products Can Help Lower Cardiovascular Disease
Source: University of Southern Denmark One way to prevent cardiovascular diseases is to avoid obesity and eat healthy, leaving the responsibility with the individual consumer.
But the responsibility should also be shared by society, argues University of Southern Denmark professor of biophysics, Ole G. Mouritsen, who has authored several books on seaweed as food.
Professor Mouritsen is the co-author of an article in the journal Phycologia reviewing existing knowledge on the health effects of 35 different seaweed species.
In the article the authors offer suggestions to how both individual consumers and the food industry can use seaweed to make our everyday meals healthier.

"It's Not Just For Eating"
I'm honestly not sure how this tallow tastes, but I do know that it makes wonderful soap (especially shaving soap)! I make soap to sell, and rendering enough tallow myself got to be too much work a few months ago. This is so much easier, and the price is roughly the same as the fat scraps I was getting from the local organic butcher. I will definitely order again soon.

Author: Mickey Trescott
Prep Time: 20 min
Cook Time: 5-7 hrs
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients:
- Two hours before cooking, take the prime rib out of the refrigerator to allow to come completely to room temperature. Rub all of the exposed surfaces with the sea salt.
- When you are ready to start cooking, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Place the meat bone side down on a rack in a roasting dish. Cook for 4-6 hours, or until an internal thermometer reads 125 degrees (for medium-rare; 135 for medium), keeping in mind that the roast will rise in temperature 5 degrees as it cools.
- Let the roast cool for 30-45 minutes while you increase the oven temperature to 500 degrees.
- Place the roast back in the oven for 7-10 minutes to let the skin get crispy. Watch it carefully here, as it can burn easily! Once you take it out of the oven it only needs a few minutes to cool; the meat on the inside has already rested.
Notes:
Alternately, you can brown the outside of the meat for 7-10 minutes in a skillet once the meat has rested.
