FEAST on This #4: Vancouver Island Sea Salt

Andrew Shepherd, recently named one of Western Living Magazine’s ’40 Foodies under 40, created Vancouver Island Salt Co (VISC) in 2010.  After a diverse and international chef career, Shepherd shifted his focus to gourmet food production and has filled the need for locally harvested artisan Pacific sea salt.  VISC offers a large variety of smoked and infused sea salts, all hand harvested off the coast of Vancouver Island’s Cowichan Valley. 

Best used as a finishing salt, we’ve got some cherry wood smoked salt tucked into our FEAST pantry for the road trip.  Can’t wait to get cookin’!

FEAST on This #3: Anything from Beaucoup Bakery

Pretty much any treat from this charming Kits bakery will be stellar, but may we make a recommendation?  If you like peanut butter, their peanut butter sandwich cookies are  one of the best things you'll ever eat.  Just make sure to bring a friend - they're hefty.
