Dill is April's SPICE OF THE MONTH! Dill is widely grown in Eurasia where its leaves and seeds are used as a herb or spice for flavouring food. Like caraway, the fernlike leaves of dill are aromatic and are used to flavor many foods such as gravlax (cured salmon) and other fish dishes, borscht and other soups, as well as pickles (where the dill flower is sometimes used).
One tablespoon chopped fresh dill = 1 teaspoon dried dill weed. The flavor of dill weed diminishes greatly the longer it is cooked. Add it at the last minute for full flavor and aroma.

Nutmeg is March's SPICE OF THE MONTH! Nutmeg is a spice from the nutmeg tree, which is native to several Indonesian islands. Both nutmeg and mace come from the same plant. Nutmeg is the ‘nut’, while mace is the surrounding lacy ‘aril’. Nutmeg has a warm, spicy aroma and flavour and can be used in sweet and savoury cooking. It is a component of the classic béchamel sauce and is used to flavour a host of cakes, puddings and custards.
We're excited to introduce to you Abbotsford's own Borderland Foods Bone Broth!
Bone broth is made by slow cooking animal bones and connective tissues for long periods of time - usually for 24 or more hours. The result is a rich broth full of amino acids, collagen, gelatin, glucosamine, electrolytes, calcium, and other minerals and nutrients. In addition to balancing the health of the gut, the collagen in bone broth also encourages healthy skin, hair and nails.
Come meet Crystal, founder of Borderland Food Co. She will be in store from 11-3 pm sampling her broths and talking about WHY you should have it in your freezer. Come try it!! She has Bison, Beef & Chicken and the answers to all of your burning bone broth questions. #inquiringminds

Star Anise is February's SPICE OF THE MONTH! This star-shaped spice is the dried fruit of a small Asian evergreen tree (a member of the magnolia family). Harvested when it’s still green and unripe, it’s dried in the sun, where it develops its red-brown color and a sweet warm flavor that’s reminiscent of licorice, clove, fennel seed, and aniseed.
Star Anise is used primarily in Vietnamese and Chinese cooking. Much like bay leaves are used in Western cuisines, whole stars are used to infuse soups, stews, and braised dishes. Ground star anise is a dominant ingredient in Chinese five-spice powder.
We are excited to introduce the Fraser Valley to Winecrush!
Winecrush is an innovative artisan food company in the wine-rich Okanagan region of British Columbia. After the local wineries press their grapes, Winecrush transforms the seeds and skins and creates artisan food pairings to match the wine.
They have developed a specialized process that activates the wild yeast that lives in the grapes to make depleted sourdough Winecrisp and our cheeses and meats are infused the rich flavours from the wine grapes. We know you are going to LOVE them as much as we do.
Owner Tyson Still will be at Well Seasoned to tell you all about their process while you taste their delicious lineup! We are proud to support another BC processor and can't wait to share their products with you!
We'll be sharing Winecrush recipes all this week leading up to the 27th! Check them out and get ready to fall in love!
