Fruit preserves made from time-honored family recipes
Bonne Maman fruit spreads are one of the most popular at Caputo's Fine Foods in Brooklyn. This shop was recommended by Benjamin Lorr, who loves to visit Caputo's for their fresh mozzarella. Caputo's has a great selection of not only jams, but breads, pastas, fresh cheeses, and ready to eat dishes!
Caputo's Fine Foods is a small, family-owned business that's been around since 1973 and is modeled after a similar shop they had in Bari, Italy. Check them out on your next trip to Brooklyn!

Ben chose fennel for its sweet flavor of anise or licorice. Use fennel fronds to garnish grapefruit or seafood.
Ben loves the tart flavors of sorrel. Their flavor is sour and can be powerful depending on leaf size. As a microgreen, its flavor is more intense than that of the larger leaves of a mature sorrel plant. Even a small amount of green sorrel can balance the flavors of a plate.
