New in Store: Fishwife Smoked Fish

We are excited to expand our offerings of gourmet foods! At last month's Trade Show, we discovered Fishwife Smoked Fish.

Staff member, Scott, recently gave it a try. He says "I am having the Smoked Rainbow Trout and the Mussels with Sweet Pepper and Garlic...it's so fantastic! I just can't say enough about how good this stuff is!"

Scott enjoyed his smoked fish as an open-faced sandwich on an English muffin.

We can't wait for you to give Fishwife a try and let us know what you think!

Recipe: Swedish Meatballs

Meatball Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 pound ground pork
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
• Pepper to taste
• 2 T olive oil (for frying)

Sauce Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
• 2/3 cup flour
• 6 cups beef broth
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 2 T Worcestershire sauce
• 2/2 cup full fat sour cream
• 2 T chopped fresh parsley

Equipment Available at Cornucopia

• Zeroll cookie scoop
• Parchment paper
• Baking sheets
• Large Dutch ovens

Directions

1. Add all the meatball ingredients (except for the olive oil) to a fairly large prep bowl. Using your hands, mix it together and then form 1 ¼ – 1 ½-inch meatballs (use about 2 ½ tbsp meat/meatball and it'll make approx. 25-30 meatballs). Place the meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy clean-up.
2. Add the olive oil to a large and deep skillet or a Dutch oven/pot and let it heat up for a few minutes over medium-high heat. Fry the meatballs in two batches until all sides are browned (about 5-7 minutes/batch). It's easiest to turn the meatballs with tongs. You may need to add a splash more oil for the second batch. Transfer meatballs to a plate.
3. Pour out most of the fat from the skillet, but keep the browned bits in for extra flavor (don't wipe it out).
4. Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once it’s melted, stir in the flour and cook, stirring often, for a few minutes until the roux starts to turn golden.
5. Slowly whisk the beef broth in, and ensure the flour has dissolved into the sauce.
6. Whisk in the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce.
7. Add the meatballs back to the pan and cook for about 10 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and the gravy thickens to your liking (it's not meant to be a super thick gravy).
8. Turn off the heat and gently stir in the sour cream.
9. Season with extra salt & pepper as needed. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
