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.
