\n<\/strong>My chutney is a combination of apple, plums, tomato, onion, garlic, currants, spices and love – when it is cooking down it smells like every great holiday or family dinner. Warm, sweet and nostalgic. It makes me think of my grandma and my favorite place on Earth – my mother’s kitchen table. <\/em><\/p>\n
\nAll of my bread comes from The Cookie Factory in Troy. Cibatta is a substantial roll that is nice and crusty on the outside, while soft and delicious on the inside. It’s the way bread is supposed to be – hearty and wholesome from your local baker.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Anyone who has visited one of the Capital District’s Farmer’s Markets and has had the good sense to pop a sample of this green deliciousness into their mouth can tell you that there is no other pesto that even comes close to tasting as good as the BuddhaPesto. It’s made by Maria Gandara & Gregor Trieste in Woodstock NY and if I were to have more children, I just might baptize them in it. It’s a favorite of the Dali Mamma. <\/em><\/p>\n
