I made my first batch of jam when I was l4. I was in Greece visiting my grandmother and she made me the most delectable desert: a shortbread cookie with latticework over an incredibly fresh peach filling. I begged her to teach me how she had made that essence of summertime-- i.e. peach jam. I fell in love with the process of cooking and canning. For the next 25+ years, I continued to experiment with preserving the incredible harvest of summertime. My efforts each year would culminate in a bountiful holiday basket that I would give to my family and friends each year. Meanwhile, I became a gourmet chef, working in the finest restaurants around the world. As I learned about different cuisines, I began to experiment and combine ingredients to make special sauces and chutneys. Unbeknownst to me at the time, I was laying the foundation for my own business outside of restaurants. My products are unique, emphasizing the the freshness and ripeness of each fruit. I use the best produce available through California farmers and farmers markets. Much of my produce is organic or as close as the farmers can get to this. Many of them are undertaking the arduous process of re-certifying their farms to be organic producers.
