Organic Bouquet Garni (Thyme, Rosemary, Bay Leaf)
$69 by pieceBouquet garni, which is French for “garnished bouquet,” is a classic herb mixture used for preparing stocks, soups, casseroles, meats, and vegetables. It traditionally comprises a few sprigs of thyme, rosemary and a bay leaf. These herbs may be bundled into a strip of leek or a piece of celery stalk, or tied in a muslin bag or with string, to keep them together during cooking and allow easy removal before serving. Using a bouquet garni instead of simply adding the herbs to your dish helps with flavor, texture, convenience, and presentation. Fresh herbs will get soggy and often discolor when left to cook for a long time, and dry herbs are not the most attractive when floating at the top of a finished dish. Bundling up the herbs—whether dried or fresh—also makes for easy removal.
Organic Pink Roscoff Onions PDO
$139 by kgYou’ve heard of rosé wine, but this is a rosé vegetable! Totally versatile, the Roscoff Onion can be used as a vegetable, a side-dish or as a condiment, raw or cooked. They are celebrated not just for their colour, but also for their unique flavour, their high vitamin C content and their long shelf-life.
Grown here since the 17th century, these onions were imported by overseas travellers and only grow in certain soils, so they are not found in many places beyond the area around Roscoff. They became famous thanks to the “Johnnies”, onion sellers who travelled from Roscoff in the 1800s to sell their produce further afield, notably in England. These men travelling the country on bikes, wearing strings of onions and dressed in their Breton striped tops are the source of our stereotype for the bike-riding French man!
Nowadays, these onions have been recognised with an AOC approved label, acknowledging the longstanding know-how behind their production, which yields about 1500 tonnes a year. Every stage in their production takes place in a specific area around Roscoff.

Organic Flat Parsley – by bunch
$35 by bunchA sprig of parsley can provide much more than a decoration on your plate. One of the very few herbs that are actually available all year round, the nutritious flat leaves are high in iron and vitamins. It can act as a natural breath sweetener too.
Flat-leafed or “Italian” parsley is used for cooking and hot dishes. To retain the flavour, add the chopped parsley towards the end of cooking, or sprinkle it on top of your finished dishes just before serving. It will need a quick rinse to remove any remains of soil.
Origin: France
Packaging: Kraft bag
Storage: Parsley can be kept in a perforated bag in the refrigerator, or stem-down in a glass of water. If the parsley is slightly wilted, sprinkle it lightly with water or wash it completely without drying before storing in the refrigerator. However, it is best to wait for washing until ready to use in your recipe.
Usage: can be used in salad or to top any hot dish.

Chocolate Mint – Laurent Berrurier
$29 by bunchChocolate Mint is a medium growing mint reaching up to 60cm tall, with a spreading nature up to 60cm. The large ovate leaves are a bronze – dark green, with deep reddish-purple stems. The lilac-purple flowers appear in summer and open from the bottom of the false whorl, progressing to the top of the inflorescence.
The aroma and flavour are open to interpretation. Some people describe the taste as like peppermint with chocolate undertones, while others cannot detect the chocolate flavour at all. The parent plant is Peppermint, so this is the main flavour with the chocolate being a novelty. Nibbling the leaves is a sure way to find out whether your palate can detect the subtle difference.
The botanical name is Mentha x piperita for the Peppermint parent which is itself Mentha aquatica (Watermint) x Mentha spicata (Spearmint). In some references the full name given is Mentha x piperita f. citrata, because there are several flavoured mints developed from the same breeding. These include Basil Mint and Orange Mint.

Sariette – Laurent Berrurier
$29 by bunch- Sage’s flavor is best when fresh, but it can be stored frozen or dried.
- To dry, hang sprigs in a shady, well-ventilated area and allow them to air dry, waiting until the leaves crumble easily to store in tightly lidded jars.
- Sage keeps its flavor better if stored in the freezer. Freeze leaves or stalks on a tray, then move the leaves into a zippered bag or container. Some cooks blend the leaves with oil, pack the ground mixture into ice cube trays to freeze, and then transfer the cubes to a container.
