Strawberry Mango Passionfruit Jam

In business since 2002, We Love Jam began by focusing on one varietal - Blenheim Apricot. After a mention in Food & Wine proclaiming their jam the best they ever tasted and with more requests than their single tree could accommodate, they began looking for an orchard to increase production. Shortly after, the team began selling other products that they had made for years that friends and family were equally crazy about.

Durum Accordions

Its tubular shape plays nicely with lighter sauces such as pesto or pomodoro and is perfect for pasta salads tossed with fresh veggies and creamy cheeses. Of course, in our test kitchen we also love it with restaurant flavors like braised eggplant or ricotta salata, in robust soups, and of course in a killer mac and cheese.
