Jasmine of is a fellow vendor at farmers’ markets here in Chicagoland; we’re excited to offer you this collaboration!

Our beloved goat milk Feta is marinated in Jasmine’s Bombay Chili Crunch, a standout in the sea of chili oils on the market with its spicy-smoky-sweet blend of crispy shallots, garlic, and a carefully curated blend of red chilis and spices.

We recommend folding it into an omelette, mounding it with Basil Jack on pizza, or wilting it with spinach over fresh pasta for a quick weeknight dinner.

Currently available for Chicagoland home delivery. Link here and in bio.
