Grown exclusively in the Langhe area of Piedmont, Italy, Tastëlanghe has been producing them since 1891. These hazelnuts will shine in dishes from sweet cakes, creams and cookies to savory salads. Or just snack on them whole.
Chita Organic Sesame Seeds
Sesame seeds are essential to the Milk Street pantry, with their nutty richness and satisfying crunch. And while high-quality seeds aren’t too hard to find, there’s always a risk you’re buying stale inventory. Not with these organically-farmed sesame seeds, though. Available in creamy white and nutty black, these come in vacuum-sealed packaging to ensure freshness while it waits to arrive in your pantry. The oxygen is literally sucked out, preventing oxidization. The nutty sweet sesame flavor we all love is especially robust, and stays firmly “sesame,” never slipping into the realm of generic nuttiness. Also of note, these are not pre-roasted like some brands. That makes them more flexible— in some cases using pre-toasted sesame puts them at risk of burning, such as when sprinkled on breads before baking or adding to a spice paste for grilled meats or broiled veggies.
