*growing organic fruit in the NE is very hard, and therefore there are very few farms that do it, hence the inclusion of low-spray. We feel that local trumps organic: support your local farms!

I’ve been traveling in Mexico, tasting lots of fruit and preserves made by our Southern neighbors.
I really liked Bó Pastisseria in the Condesa neighborhood of Mexico City. They make a few flavors, but the Strawberry & Basil (or fresa & albahaca in Spanish) caught my eye. They have a nice quote on their Facebook Page:

A few jam fans have requested the recipe for my Blood Orange Marmalade. Although I would say, wait till my cookbook comes out, that won’t be until August. So here it is!
Blood Orange Marmalade is the perfect antidote to the doldrums of winter, or if you live in warmer climates, then an antidote to a [...]
This is the time of year when those of us that live in less temperate climates being to forget what summer feels like, and we instead must dream of warm wind and green leaves, fresh fruit and lazy warm afternoons. In winter, everything is internalized and life moves at a slower, paler pace. It’s a [...]
Jam and cheese are a perfect pair; I would even argue it trumps P B & J (sacrilege, I know). You can now buy our Strawberry Balsamic Jam online and in the catalog at Murray’s Cheese! Perfect for gifts to friends and family far away, since they have great combos and they’ll pack up a [...]
Honey bees have been obsessed with my jam these past few weeks. Every market they come and hover, crawling into the sample jars. I came up with the solution of leaving an almost empty jar of Grapefruit & Smoked Salt Marmalade on the side of my booth as a lure — and it worked! Everyone is [...]

It’s Rosh Hashanah this weekend and Yom Kippur next week, and in honor of the holidays, the amazing baker Melissa Weller is making challah this weekend, and I’ll have it for sale at Smorgasburg Market in Williamsburg this Saturday, along with the usual bread and jam.

I help scrape the seeds from the hot little peppers, save them in small towels and jars, until March when I plant them in earth and let them grow into fragile seedlings, until the sun is warm enough the soil unfrozen and they can be planted and grow stronger and flower, until [...]
Some may not know this, but I’ve been selling bread at my Smorgasburg booth every Saturday this summer and autumn. Not just any bread, some of the best bread in NYC (actually, the East Coast — it often gets compared to Tartine in San Fran) made by Melissa Weller at Roberta’s in Bushwick.
Melissa, a former [...]
As autumn unfolds, I wanted to give a thank you to everyone who stopped by our market booths, came to a jam class, bought a jar at a store, or enjoyed the bounty — it was a great summer, thanks to your awesomeness!We’ll miss Emma, a fabulous jam apprentice who many folks saw at the [...]
