Accoceberry was founded in 1959 by Jean Accoceberry, in the town of Espelette in southwest France, close to the Spanish border. The company was eventually passed on to his son, Pierre, and has expanded to include two shops in the Espelette town centre, a factory and a banquet hall. Sadly, in early 2013 Pierre passed away, but his two sons, Eric and Patrick, have taken over the reins and are the third generation to handle the family company.

In 1891, Bernardo Ortiz de Zarate established Conservas Ortiz in Vizcaya, Spain, located in the Basque region. Since then, five generations have maintained and improved upon the artisan methods of production, leading to a delicious, premium range of anchovies and tuna.
Known as the 'Beluga caviar' of the anchovy world, Ortiz anchovies are prized for their superior flavour, quality and texture. The anchovies are preserved whole, layered with coarse salt and pressed for up to 6 months. This results in a firm-textured anchovy with a less salty taste. Each anchovy is then individually trimmed and filleted by hand, to remove all bones.

From La Vera in Spain, this Paprika is smoked slowly over a low flame for several days intensifying its flavour and colour.
Agridulce paprika adds flavour to meat, seafood, grains and lentils. Also perfect in cheese sauce with cauliflower.
Capsicum peppers were brought to Europe by Christopher Columbus, and the Spanish were the first to mill them into a powdered spice. Today, pimentón (paprika) remains one of the Spanish kitchen's defining ingredients. Not far from where Columbus introduced the capsicum plant to Spain, is the Extremadura region, famous for its world-renowned smoked paprika. In 1993, smoked paprika from La Vera, in Extremadura, became the world’s first pepper spice with denomination of origin status.
Of all the producers in this area, La Chinata, a small family-owned and operated business, are considered to produce the finest Spanish paprika, owing to their dedication to quality and the patience and care involved in their traditional, artisan process.
Their peppers are oak-smoked for up to two weeks before being slowly ground between stone-cut wheels for 9 hours, until they reach a super-fine texture. The heat produced by the friction of the stones is carefully controlled, as maintaining a lower temperature releases the full aromas and flavours locked in the peppers’ oils.
There are three varieties of La Chinata smoked paprika, each made from a different variety of pepper; Dulce (sweet), Agridulce (bittersweet) and Picante (spicy). Their distinctive red tins are recognised around the world and are the choice of world-famous chefs such as Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson and Gordon Ramsay. Their new innovation are ground paprika flakes (branded under Pons), chunkier than their fine powder and offering a new multitude of uses.

Pons is a family-owned business which has been making premium olive oil since 1930 and is now run by the fourth generation. Based in Llieda, Catalonia, near Barcelona, the family have 1000 acres (350 hectares) of land, with 200 hectares dedicated to organic crops. Their specialty is the Arbequina olives, which are all hand-picked, stone-milled and cold-pressed.
Pons are dedicated to producing premium olive oils using traditional methods and with a respect to the land. They also offer a fabulous range of quality versions of classic Spanish lines including capers, sweet white garlic and wine.
“Preserving our legacy is our mission. An ancestral land, clean and pure. Generations pass, but the land is always present. We take great care of our crops so that many more generations can enjoy the magic that our land gives us, the magic and excellence that our oils offer today.”
Unlike other glazes on the market, which have only 20% grape content and are artificially thickened, this contains 39% grape. It is a thick, tangy and syrupy glaze. Use freely on just about everything, including strawberries, of course.
The Giusti family have been producing balsamic in the traditional way in Modena since 1605. They are the oldest and most awarded producer of balsamic and have an unrivalled collection of antique barrels still in use.
Giusti select good quality Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes and slowly reduce the grape juice in copper kettles until it is thick, dark and sweet. Unlike industrially produced balsamic vinegar, Giusti do not use pressurisation to speed up the reduction process. It is a labour of time and patience.
Giusti add only good quality wine vinegar to the cooked grape must, and then age it in traditional barrels of various woods - juniper, cherry, oak, ash, and mulberry. Each wood infuses the balsamic with its own unique flavour and aroma. Giusti have over 1000 barrels in use - 600 of which are over 200 years old. Many industrial producers have only a few barrels and large, stainless steel silos.
As the balsamic ages, it ferments, and the liquid evaporates. Each barrel is then topped up with balsamic from another barrel of different wood. Because each barrel contains a blend of vinegars from other barrels, it is impossible to determine the age of the balsamic in any one barrel.
For Giusti’s specially dispensed reserve balsamics, they are in a unique position where they can extract small quantities from their very old reserves. Here Giusti can be quite sure of the minimum age of the must as when these barrels are topped up, they are done so only with older vinegar, not young must. Due to the blending process, these reserves will also include must that is older than the specified age. Other producers do not have these ancient barrels and reserves. Gisuti are meticulous in their blending process and track everything; for them producing balsamic is a craft, not just a commercial enterprise.
Vialone Nano rice is grown to organic principals and artisan-milled outside of Verona, it has a small and oval grain. It's full of flavour and delicately herbaceous. It has the ability to absorb two and a half times its weight in liquid.
Traditionally used for making easy and delicious risotto every time, see back of packaging for the no-stir cooking method. Ideal for making a naturally creamier risotto and the ultimate rice pudding.
Ferron risotto rice comes from Isola della Scala, just out of Verona. Their historic 17th century rice mill is thought to be the oldest working mill in Italy and is still water-driven. It is still used to process some rice and is complemented by “modern” machines from the 1950s. Carnaroli and Vialone Nano rice are grown in the traditional, centuries old, agricultural method, without the use of chemical fertilisers or pesticides. In 1996, Ferron Vialone Nano rice was declared an “Indicazione Geografica Protetta” (IGP) - a geographically protected product with an assurance of quality and authenticity. It is the only variety in Europe that carries the IGP quality guarantee.
Ferron rice is very different to the more commercially produced Arborio or Vercelli rice. It is not highly polished, ensuring more essential starch and vitamins remain, giving the rice a greater yield, better texture and a distinct, nutty taste. The rice has the amazing ability to not only absorb greater quantities of stock but to also retain the classic individuality of the grain.
This award winning late harvest balsamic is dedicated to the ancestor, Riccardo, who created the recipe at the beginning of the 20th century. More viscous and concentrated than Giusti's usual style, Riccardo is obtained from sweet, sundried grapes and undergoes a longer cooking process.
Aromas and flavours of plum jam and red fruits intertwine with hints of honey and vanilla in a considerably viscous and sweet product.
Riccardo is perfect in a dressing for savoury or sweet dishes, a delicious addition to pasta dishes and excellent drizzled over steak or any cut of beef.
Ingredients: Must of cooked sundried grapes, aged wine vinegar.
Aging: In oak barriques, dismissed by wineries.\
