Why the Sour Face?

Root Cellar Preserves

You’ve always had a thing for Peter Piper. How he worked that peck of pickled peppers.

For pickles that’ll give your pucker a serious smile, turn to Root Cellar Preserves.

The Wellesley-based company uses traditional brining methods (salt, vinegar, spices) in its gourmet recipes to preserve all-natural veggies the old-fashioned way.

Options like corn relish flavored with mustard, harvest medley ratatouille with roasted veggies and a spicy kick, and corn and bean salsa are more than just sandwich sidekicks.

If you’d rather stick with cured cukes, they do apple-cinnamon, sweet and spicy, and bread and butter chips.

A favorite of that chick who sells seashells by the seashore.

Available at Formaggio Kitchen, 244 Huron Avenue, Cambridge (617-354-4750 or formaggiokitchen.com); online at rootcellarpreserves.com.

We're with you DC!! We likey Root Cellar Preserves, not only because they are way delicioso, but they also support the old school art of pickling. Root Cellars has a fund to help preserve early American homesteads (where they were serious about their pickling ). We have a cool video about Root Cellars if you'd like to meet Susan, the owner, at http://www.dailygrommet.com/products/65-Root-Cellar-Preserves-Pickle-Sampler These pickles are also hanging out at our site ready for purchase at Daily Grommet!
