Cooking school student creation: Macanese pork chop bun (zhu pa bao) with our Preserved Meyer Lemon butter.

Everything tastes better with butter. Butter is better with Preserved Meyer Lemon.

RECIPE - Preserved 🍋 Herb Butter

NEED

1 stick unsalted butter (1/2 cup, softened)

1 TBS Rosemary Preserved Meyer Lemon Paste

3 TBS fresh parsley, chopped

1 1/2 TBS fresh chopped herbs - oregano, thyme, etc.

DO

Mix ingredients in a bowl until well combined.

Place on a piece of parchment or plastic wrap and roll into a log. Twist ends to seal.

Refrigerate at least 1 hour. If there’s hot, fresh bread in the vicinity, we can’t promise that this deliciousness won’t be dripping off your chin if you eat it sooner.

Slice and serve yourself first. There may not be any left when the butter dish is returned to you.

Do you dream in color or black and white? We choose color every time.

A deep yellow, almost orange hue signals a Meyer lemon has reached peak ripeness. Held on the branch, it retains its essential oils and full flavor until it’s harvested.

Flavor saves us, even when we fail at everything else.

Who cooks in the middle of a move?! We do, because chicken doesn’t travel.

We marinate before we realize the movers packed the grill. Oops. Where is that frying pan?

Sorry, World Spice, we know this Rose Harissa is old packaging, but we refuse to throw anything away. And when combined with our Rosehips Preserved Meyer Lemon… these two were old friends the moment they met. Punchy florals and bright, deep citrus.

Olive oil accompanies the chicken to this indoor picnic, joining the roses together.

The now-empty fridge had a lonesome pepper, and a sole onion anchored the pantry.

In a perfect world, the chicken would’ve marinated in the fridge all day. But we don’t live in a perfect world, and we no longer have a fridge. But we do find our flavor, every time.

More good news from NYC. Chef Loraine introduces us to a bright summer marinade for salmon: pineapple and our Rosehips Coriander Preserved Meyer Lemon.

Chef, shall we send your mother a jar so she doesn’t steal yours?!

Cristina and our Moroccan blend have a long-standing relationship - her riff on a decade-old New York Times’ recipe for couscous with dried apricots and pistachios bears the stamp of her culinary personality and talent as a graphic designer - the instinct to dig below the surface and add what’s missing.

Preserved Meyer Lemon is a shapeshifter. No one may know it’s in your cooking unless you tell them, but they’ll taste how it transforms a recipe, and miss it when it’s gone.

Steve Hartz is a professional cheesecake specialist and crouton legend in Northern California. He’s that guy who bakes for bakeries and restaurants, and we love him for it.

Steve put our Rosehips Preserved Meyer 🍋 to work in his lemon crinkle cookie recipe, and now we love him even more. And the cookies! Bright, chewy and snow-dusted.

What did you make?

A cheese plate and charcuterie board. But we just spread the Rosehips Preserved Meyer Lemon on crackers and called it lunch.

Uptown Chunk baked a batch of lemon cookies with our Preserved Meyer Lemon Paste. We ate them at an 8 am photoshoot because they’re THAT good and…life is short.

Crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside are what give Uptown’s New York style cookies its edge.
Ann, the owner/baker/cookie master, uses all-natural ingredients to make these marvels herself.

Will the pop-up become a permanent item? Only the baker knows. We’re just delighted to be in the mix.
