August's Flavors of the Month are Japanese Toasted Sesame Oil and Honey Ginger Balsamic!

This month's pairing turns up the flavor with two bold customer favorites. The Japanese Toasted Sesame Oil is rich, nutty, and full of deep roasted flavor, while the Honey Ginger Balsamic balances sweet honey with a bright ginger finish. Together, they make it easy to elevate everyday meals!

The Japanese Toasted Sesame Oil is perfect for finishing stir-fries, drizzling over fried rice or ramen, tossing with roasted vegetables, whisking into homemade vinaigrettes, or mixing into marinades for chicken, steak, or salmon. A little goes a long way!

The Honey Ginger Balsamic is wonderful as a glaze for salmon or pork, whisked into dressings, drizzled over roasted carrots or Brussels sprouts, tossed with fresh fruit, or paired with cream cheese and crackers for an easy appetizer.

Each one shines on its own, but together they're even better!
• As a marinade for chicken, pork, salmon, or shrimp
• Whisked into an Asian-inspired salad dressing or cabbage slaw
• Drizzled over rice or grain bowls
• Brushed onto grilled vegetables or meats as a finishing glaze
• As a dipping sauce for dumplings or spring rolls

Come in this month and enjoy 15% OFF our August Flavors of the Month while supplies last!
