$15.00Koy Pantry Pepper Paste
Pepper paste is a commonly used condiment to add a depth of flavor to dishes. Sweet peppers are harvested, deseeded and deveined, salted, air-dried, and cooked into a spreadable puree. Use sparingly to add a depth of sweet pepper flavor to your dishes. Perfect for mixing into dips and spreads, braising meats, making stews, spreading on toasted bread, or using as a condiment for your sandwich. In Turkish cuisine, both tomato paste and pepper paste are typically used to compliment each other in dishes. Ingredients – peppers, salt Size – 9.2 oz. | 260 g. Origin – Antakya, Turkey From Koy Pantry
$14.00Koy Pantry Figs in Syrup
From Koy Pantry Figs are a favored fruit that are widely cultivated in the Anatolian landscape. Our whole young Turkish figs are quick-pickled, cooked in a spiced syrup, and then preserved in their own syrup to keep their whole shape and slightly crunchy texture. Our preserved figs are a strikingly beautiful accompaniment both visually and in flavor to any cheese or charcuterie board. Pairs exceptionally well with fresh cheeses like chevre or ricotta, aged sheep’s milk cheeses such as pecorino, and soft-ripened cheeses. We especially love to enjoy these with extra-aged prosciutto or a thin slice of speck. Can be sliced and used as a topping for labne, oatmeal or toasted and buttered bread. Save the syrup! We love to add some to our coffee and tea beverages, cocktails, as a substitute for a drizzle of honey. Ingredients – figs, sugar, pickling salt Size – 14.8 oz. | 420 g. Origin – Antakya, Turkey
