Ceviche with a fresh twist! 🐟

The success of this ceviche is predicated on the quality and freshness of the fish, as well as the specific olive oil you use. Beyond being mindful about these two factors, this is an exceedingly easy dish to dazzle your seafood loving guests with.

Here's what you'll need:

1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons Honey-Serrano Vinegar or Jalapeno White Balsamic Vinegar
1/3 cup Hojiblanca you could also substitute our Baklouti, Chipotle, or Cayenne Olive Oil here
1/2 cup finely diced red onion
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1 finely diced seeded, jalapeno (optional)
2 medium firm ripe tomatoes, seeded and finely diced
1 large avocado, finely diced (optional)
1 pound raw, super fresh Rock Cod, Bay Shrimp, Scallops, Sea Bass, Striped Bass, Grouper, Lingcod, Snapper, etc. cut in to small uniform pieces
Sea salt to taste

Directions
Combine the olive oil, vinegar, lime juice and sea salt. Whisk to combine. Add in the other ingredients including the fish and stir to combine well. Marinate covered in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Serve. The longer you allow this to sit, the more the fish will begin to "cook" in the acid of the lime juice and fall apart. Ideally, you want to mix this and serve it straight away. However, if you do let it sit, it will still be edible but the fish will break up.

Serves 6 as an appetizer

Our much awaited May pairing is here!

This month we chose our Red Apple Balsamic Vinegar and our savory Sage & Mushroom Olive Oil. 🍎🌿

Enjoy special savings on this combo all month long and while supplies last. Available in store and online.

Sapete quale è la tradizione a tavola in Abruzzo il Primo Maggio?

Le Virtù! Una ricchissima minestra di primizie di stagione, sapientemente mischiate a tutto quello che invece era avanzato in dispensa invernale. Per il calendario contadino questo giorno rappresentava lo spartiacque tra la fine dell’inverno e l’inizio della stagione feconda. In onore della dea Maja (da cui maggio) per propiziare la fertilità della terra e l’abbondanza del raccolto, nella cultura contadina si celebrava un rito, un piatto propiziatorio per l’estate, affinché la stagione consentisse di avere un raccolto sufficiente per tutto l’inverno successivo.

Leggenda narra che le Virtù dovevano essere preparate da 7 vergini, utilizzando 7 legumi, 7 aromi, 7 carni, 7 verdure di stagione, 7 tipi di pasta, cucinato tutto in 7 ore… 7, perché sono 7 le virtù cristiane.

Rustichella d’Abruzzo omaggia con un formato con solo grano abruzzese questa antica tradizione culinaria! Buon Primo maggio!

For some, eating foods that contain gluten causes digestive problems. If this is you, we've got the pasta cure! 🍝

In response to changing dietary needs across the globe, created a line of artisanal pasta made with organic, gluten-free flours. Now, those with a gluten allergy or intolerance can experience the joy of eating an exceptional bowl of pasta.

Rustichella d'Abruzzo's master pasta maker Gianluigi Peduzzi developed an innovative technique to properly impastare ("make a paste') with corn flour, green pea flour, red lentil flour, and brown and white rice flours. Instead of mixing the flour with mountain spring water—as is done for all other pasta—it is injected with steam. This makes the dough dense enough to withstand the pressure of the extrusion, but keeps it from getting gummy—thus ensuring the perfect al dente texture when cooked.

Rustichella d'Abruzzo's gluten-free pasta is produced in a completely separate gluten-free facility, away from any conventional flour contact. It is dried for over 30 hours in temperature-controlled cabins at 150° F to develop flavor and ensure consistency. Each box bears the Euro Leaf logo, guaranteeing it certified organic by the European Union and the Controlla e Certificazione Prodotti Biologici (CCPB).

Both shops open today from 11-6
