Yesterday I spent time to help support a new small business, The Crooked Row, and today me and my wife Kris Bour of Healing Touch Therapeutic Massage Crossville, TN will have a booth at Lunch on the Lawn to help support Cumberland County Habitat for Humanity

Both me and my wife are small business owners and we try to support local small businesses and organizations when we can. Small business owners are important to the community cause they support local charities, sponsor teams, help other small business owners, etc….

Whenever you can, choose to shop local.

I am getting a new line of WÜSTHOF knives just released this year called the Partner. Hope to have them in stock soon.

In the meantime I am discontinuing the Mercer Millennia line, and have marked them down on my website. Since this is mainly a food service knife I did give first chance to our local restaurants, and now I am offering them at the discounted price to the public.

If you are local to Crossville, please select Local Pick Up before adding it to the cart. Default is shipping, and if you forget then you will have to delete it from the cart, go back to the product page and add it correctly.

Mango season is here ☀️🥭

Sweet, juicy, and perfect for everything from smoothies to homemade salsa, fresh mango is one of summer's best treats. The tricky part? Getting around that pit.

Here's how to make it easier with a sharp, controlled blade like the WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon 4½" Paring Knife 🔪

1️⃣ Choose a ripe mango. Look for one that feels heavy and fragrant, with a little give when gently pressed. Not rock solid, but not wrinkly and squishy. Did you know, a mango that's ripe, is easier to cut!

2️⃣ Trim the rounded end to create a stable base. Starting about an inch from the stem, carefully cut the cheeks from the mango, moving around the pit as closely as possible.

3️⃣ Score the mango flesh into bite-sized pieces.

4️⃣ Flip the mango open and scoop into a bowl. Repeat with any remaining mango flesh.

5️⃣ And that little bit left around the pit? Consider it the cook's treat 😋

Fresh mango, made simple.

Discover the WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon Paring Knife for all the small, precise tasks that make a big difference in the kitchen.

Fresh summer ingredients deserve tools that help them shine. 🍓🌿

Nothing says summer quite like a trip to the farmers market. Fresh strawberries, warm bread, and fragrant herbs are all you need to create something memorable.

Simple recipes become memorable when great ingredients meet the right tools.

Strawberry Bruschetta with Ricotta & Fresh Herbs

Ingredients

Fresh strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced
Ricotta cheese
Crusty sourdough or baguette
Olive oil
Fresh basil or mint
Lemon zest and juice
Salt & black pepper
Honey (optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
Using the WÜSTHOF Classic 3½" (9 cm) Paring Knife, trim the green tops from the strawberries, preserving as much fruit as possible. Thinly slice the strawberries, then gently toss with the lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Using the WÜSTHOF 9" (23 cm) Precision Double-Serrated Bread Knife, slice the baguette diagonally into sixteen ½-inch (1.3 cm) slices. The double-serrated edge glides through the crisp crust without crushing the soft interior. Brush with olive oil, season lightly with salt, and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp. For a smoky summer twist, toast the bread on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes per side instead.
Spread ricotta over each toasted slice. Top with the strawberries, drizzle with the reserved juices and a little olive oil, then finish with chopped basil or mint, plus a pinch of salt and pepper. Add a drizzle of honey if you like a touch of sweetness.

Serve immediately and enjoy a taste of summer that's simple, fresh, and made to share. ☀️
