Ingredient Notes

Core + Rind Cashew Cheesy Sauce - Love “cheese” again with Core and Rind Plant-based and dairy-free cashew cheesy sauce!
Joi Cashew Nutmilk Base - Nut Milk base is a concentrate of 100% nuts, no junk!
Burlap and Barrel - Purple Stripe Garlic - Grown by a group of farmers in the mountains of northern Vietnam and has a savory and sweet flavour!
Burlap and Barrel - Zanzibar Black Peppercorn - Their peppercorns are allowed to ripen longer on the vine before being hand picked and sundried, resulting in a rich chocolate coloured pepper.
