Grassfed brisket is marinated in a traditional seasoned brine, then braised in mineral-rich broth with aromatic spices and carrots, turnips, cabbage and rutabagas from local Bay Area farms. The term "corning" comes from the nuggets of rock salt often used in this traditional meat preservation method.
Ingredients: grassfed beef and beef bone broth, brine (filtered water, Celtic sea salt, garlic,* apple cider vinegar,* honey,* bay leaves,* mustard seeds,* peppercorns,* curing salt (sodium chloride and sodium nitrite)*, celery seeds*), cabbage,* carrots,* onions,* rutabagas,* turnips,* mustard seed,* allspice,* black pepper,* cloves* (* = organic)
Recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, nightshade-free and GAPS Diet-friendly.
Note: We use nitrite because there is evidence that a small amount of sodium nitrite is healthier than a large amount of so-called natural vegetable-based nitrate such as celery powder, which can convert to toxic nitrosamines in the body.

Another new addition to our Ground Chicken Meaty Pint lineup, this lovely dish came into being as a "rescue recipe" to make good use of extra ground chicken and green beans, and we knew we had a winner!

In Mexico, baked vegetable custards are a part of many meals. They are more savory than sweet, smooth-textured, and rich with eggs.

Eat for breakfast, or as a dessert (with a dollop of sweetened yogurt cream!) Enjoy hot, cold or at room temperature.

GOLD MEDAL WINNER! -- BEST OF EAST BAY EXPRESS 2024 BEST LOCALLY MADE PRODUCT! If you're "organ meat-curious" and looking to incorporate this superfood in your diet, this luscious spread is a great place to start! Chicken livers are high in iron and selenium, vitamin A and B vitamins, and the flavor is quite a bit milder than beef liver. In our Pâté, organic chicken livers from Pittman Farms are pan-seared, poached in Straus pasture-raised butter and puréed with caramelized onions, parsley, nutrient-dense Celtic sea salt, Dijon mustard (gluten-free), a few drops of brandy and a touch of spice for a rich, deeply satisfying and nourishing spread that is topped with a thin layer of butter to preserve freshness. One of our most popular dishes, it's perfect on one of our gluten-free breads or the irresitable Cult Crackers -- don't forget to use the butter layer! A forkful or two of our raw sauerkraut offers a bright balance of flavor and a probiotic boost for digestion. Serving hint: let it warm up a little at room temperature before serving.

This frozen, ready-to-cook raw meatloaf is made with grassfed beef. Instead of breadcrumbs, we use lentils that have been soaked and pureed to create a classic meatloaf texture.

A mild chili featuring the famous Three Sisters of Native America: maize, beans and squash. In our version, Alma Semillera heirloom posole is nixtamalized (cooked with slaked lime to release B Vitamins) and then simmered until tender in a savory and lightly spiced tomato base with white butter beans from Iacopi Farm in Half Moon Bay and butternut squash. When you eat this stew, celebrate Native American wisdom! Planting these three crops together provides benefits to each: corn provides a climbing structure for the beans, which add nitrogen to the soil, while the squash leaves shade the roots of the corn and the beans and prevent soil evaporation.
Ingredients: butternut squash,* posole,* butter beans, onions,* crushed tomatoes,* olive oil, garlic,* cilantro,* Celtic sea salt, apple cider vinegar,* coriander,* cumin,* paprika,* smoked paprika,* cinnamon,* chipotle powder,* cloves,* bay leaves, wild-harvested kombu sea vegetable (a small amount cooked with the beans to add nutrition and aid digestability) (* = organic)

Escarole is one of the classic and deeply nourishing greens that is prized in Europe but sadly lacking in the American diet. Escarole's tender leaves have a hint of bitterness which is balanced in this dish by braising it in tomato broth with bay leaves for a rich and delicious "brodo." It is finished with grated Parmigiano Reggiano and black pepper. Add bone broth and re-season for a soup, or try serving it over polenta, rice, or pasta. Also great with Italian sausage or your favorite white fish.
