I just read that August is the Sunday night of summer and I completely agree with this sentiment. Even in these strange times, the summer months are flying by! Before August gets away from us, I want to share this Grilled Peach and Pineapple Melba Sundae recipe with you. It is THE Summertime Sundae wrapped in fresh fruit and a sprinkle of our sea salt.
Read MoreWhat is ‘Join the Club’ Bar? It is essentially two layers of caramel in between three layers of Club Crackers. Surprising with the Club crackers, right?! The topping is a thick blanket of chocolate, butterscotch, and peanut butter. Newport Sea Salt is the crown jewel on the top balancing out the sweetness and making these oh so memorable. You will want to have others ‘Join the Club’ and share them at your Superbowl and Oscar parties.
Read MoreI am sure you have noticed through our social media posts, Instagram stories and ‘From the Reef’ recipe blog, that we like to cook, bake, prepare, and enjoy food. Growing up, Matt would ask his mom first thing in the morning, “What’s for dinner?” That hasn’t changed in our home, although, it has changed to, “What do you want to eat tonight?”. :) With 2 growing boys, we were preparing lots of calorie-dense meals to keep up with their appetites..and well, the weight scale did the same for us…the numbers grew for Matt and I (and not our kids)!
SO this hummus is in an effort to brighten our weekdays and lend a positive light on the weight scale with our increased gym routine and ahem, more water not wine. ;)
Read MoreHello from Newport Sea Salt Co.!
I am happy to report that with the arrival of the month of May, our City-by-the-Sea is starting to knock off the winter sleepies and extra layers. Well, we may be in less layers, however Matt is still tugging on his waders during collection time. Not shorts weather yet, friends - although very soon!
Two things I have realized:
1. I went into blog hibernation (sorry) .
2. I missed writing and taking pictures for our small business.
As the Spring season helps awaken mother nature, I am feeling a little bit awakened too! So, I will see you on here a bit more.
New Location!
I was able to join Matt on some deliveries today. The Cheese Wheel in Tiverton has welcomed us to their shelves. You can find a large array of high quality artisan cheeses, as well as an assortment of charcuterie, jams, and accompaniments and a multitude of local provisions like our sea salt and Beth Bakes Gluten Free Crackers and their own eggs….aren’t they lovely looking???!
Happy Spring and Stay Salty!
It has taken me a long time to write this as this recipe has quite the story attached to it.
In New England, it has been a winter of frigid cold temperatures followed with short dark days where I feel like bears have it right with this hibernating thing. Wake me when spring is here.
Read MoreHello there and Happy delicious and inspiring New Year to you! I know I have said this before in other posts, but I will say it again - Whew! It has been a whirlwind of activity both personally and professionally for our Newport Sea Salt family. During our first small business Christmas season, we moved into our old home in Newport from military housing. This was our first move ever that did not involve moving out of state, across country or across the ocean - but just across town. It was the shortest move we have ever made, but not the easiest. As snow came down as well as the cold temperature, we watched as box after box came into our home marked ‘nick nacks’ and books waiting to find a cozy spot in our extra small home. Matt and I just looked at each other with a bit of bewilderment, but smiled and started to unpack - and decorate for Christmas. Did I mention that between the move and the crazy holiday season that it was business as usual?! And not usual by any means, as we had vendors calling us with replenishing requests and new orders to stock their shelves. It was AH-MAZING.

It is a wind whipping 27 degrees here in Newport, Rhode Island - in November! Oh man, I am not ready to brave the cold temperatures outside so I will stay cozy right here sitting at our farm table with my hot cup of coffee and my winter blanket scarf wrapped around me while I write about this ah-mazing pumpkin bread I can’t stop eating! I know I just posted another pumpkin recipe in cookie form, but seriously while we were stationed in Italy we did not get around to too many pumpkin items and I am now catching up! But just wait, this pumpkin bread is different. It is moist, it is dark and pumpkin pie spicy and it is topped with, drumroll please… rosemary sea salt! I know what you are thinking - rosemary sea salt on traditional pumpkin bread??? This recipe is to add a twist for those that want to throw caution to the windy day out there and make a traditional recipe ‘POP’ with sea salt and fresh fragrant rosemary. It brings out all the fall flavors! You will want to make it for your neighbors, friends, and loaves just for yourself to enjoy on cold fall weekend mornings curled up on the couch.
