Among their items this week is kimchi. Considered one of the world's healthiest foods, LOST Gourmet's version is mildly spicy and made with napa cabbage, garlic, ginger and whey. Use kimchi as a condiment for soups, salads, pastas, even hamburgers and hot dogs. Chef Olga loves it for breakfast alongside eggs and sausage. And of course, they'll have shrub. We love that folks are enjoying this refreshing, healthy drink as much as we do! This week's shrub is brimming with antioxidants from blueberries and of course a whole range of vitamin and natural enzymes from the raw apple cider. Star anise adds a subtle sweet and herbal note to this Colonial beverage.
