Check out this customer's great Thanksgiving feast ideas using Maisie Jane's products! I'm going to try the dishes myself. They sound yummy! Here's her input:
"My Early Thanksgiving Weekend.
I went to a holiday party this weekend, an early Thanksgiving, and I took two side dishes. One dish, Chile-roasted Acorn Squash was out of the November edition of Sunset Magazine. I dropped by Maisie Jane's and grabbed the new Paradise Pepper Jelly they carry that is made by KB's Kitchen. I substituted the Pepper Jelly for the sweet and spicy glaze that the recipe called for. It was perfect because the Pepper Jelly is nice and smooth. I grabbed 2 acorn squash at the Saturday Farmer's Market in Chico, and I was all set. The recipe was so easy and super yummy.
The second dish I made was an Asian Pear, Persimmon and Almond Salad, which was from the Sunset Magazine web site. I know, I know, I love Sunset. I picked up the persimmons at your store. I have never used persimmons before, and I was so excited. I also grabbed a bag of your Honey Glazed Sliced Almonds to top the salad instead of plain almonds. They were an awesome addition to the salad. I used Berkeley Olive Grove's Extra Virgin Mission Olive Oil, which I was also able to get from your store to add the final flavor.
I wanted to share these recipes with you because they both got a lot of compliments, and I was so excited to be able to use local ingredients to make them great.
Next up, I am going to try out a cute idea I saw to use Martini Glasses to hold flavored nuts on an appetizer table. I have a bunch of Martini glasses, so I got Cinnamon Glazed Almonds, Country Herb and Garlic Almonds, and Curry Spiced Cashews from your store to put out for Thanksgiving. I will send you a photo to show you how great they turn out.
Thanks for all the great local foods."
