Condiments & Jarred Goods
In every good cupboard, there’s a stash of condiments and jarred goods that you can whip out to add flavour or create a quick dish. Check out Grape Tree’s cupboard essentials with everything from taste-boosting juices to savoury meals.
Organic vinegar and juices
Vinegar and juices aren’t only great for your health, but they add flavour and have nutritional benefits. Organic Apple Cider Vinegar or Cider Vinegar with The Mother enhance the taste of baked apple muffins and give a zing to savoury sauces.
If you want a sweet but tangy punch in smoothies and desserts, we recommend Organic Ginger Juice, Cranberry Juice or Lemon Juice. The freshly squeezed flavour brings a spark to any dish.
Tahini
Tahini is made from sesame seeds. You can use Brown Tahini or Orginal Tahini as a dip, spread, salad dressing or even bake into oatbars. If you have a sweet tooth, try Vanilla Tahini Halva - a sumptuous sweet dessert made from a mix of tahini, sugar and vanilla.
Naturally fermented
Fermented foods are fantastic for your gut health and store well in the cupboard until you are ready to use them. Biona’s Organic Sauerkraut, Turmeric Sauerkraut and Sauerkraut With Ruby Beetroot is naturally fermented raw cabbage and tastes fantastic with vegetable fritters or to make a premium salad.
Organic Kimchi is similar to sauerkraut, except it’s a mixture of salted and fermented vegetables that tastes wonderful when mixed in with Brown Rice Miso Soup Paste.
If you want lots of plant-friendly protein, stock up on Natural Tempeh. Made from fermented soybeans, it bulks out miso soup for a meat alternative.
Nut butter and oils
Nut butter is a must in any cupboard, and Natural Selection’s Smooth Peanut Butter is incredible spread over toast or mixed into porridge. For anyone who enjoys light and nutty flavours, switch out sunflower cooking oil for Biona’s Odourless Coconut Oil for a light, delicate taste.
Natural sweeteners and rising agents
Barley Malt Extract is a fantastic sugar alternative as it naturally sweetens meals, desserts and drinks. If you like to bake bread, keep a pot of Yeast Flakes in your cupboard - especially important if you follow a vegan diet, as yeast is rich in B12.
Sauces and pates
Love sauces but hate how many artificial flavourings, salt and sugar they contain? Opt for Organic Tomato Ketchup - a classic ketchup recipe with 70% organic tomatoes. Do the same for all your condiments and choose Organic Satay Peanut Simmer Sauce or Vegan Beetroot Horseradish Pate for mouthwatering flavours without the additives.
In a pinch
No matter how hard you try to stay organised, there’s always a time when you need something quick and easy. Keep a few tins of Organic Baked Beans in the cupboard to grab when you're in a pinch. Or turn plain pasta into a delectable dish with Gourmet Sun Dried Tomatoes.
