North Beach Blend

Our North Beach Blend, affectionately known as the "pizza blend", is a classic combo of Italian herbs and spices, with a definite zing from the extra-crunchy mix of chili flakes and oregano. Delicious in dipping oil, tomato sauce, pastas, sprinkled on focaccia, or as a zesty topping on pizza.

Ingredients: Oregano, Basil, Chili Pepper, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Garlic, Rosemary, Thyme, Black Pepper and Sea Salt.

Quick Uses & Ideas:

• For a delicious dipping oil to serve with fresh baguette, mix 1 tbsp North Beach Blend with 4 Tbsp House Blend, Basil, Garlic or Rosemary EVOO. Let steep 1 hour, taste, and adjust. Good to make in advance - the longer it steeps the more flavorful it becomes.
• Makes an excellent Bruschetta - check out our recipes for all seasons!
• Excellent in a tomato sauce for pasta. Make simple homemade pasta sauce by sautéing 1/2 onion, a few cloves of garlic, and NBB in olive oil until soft, then add canned tomatoes and simmer, adding salt to taste.
• Sprinkle on garlic bread or grilled veggies.
• Mix with fresh ricotta, basil & parsley, fill large pasta shells, top with marinara sauce and bake.
• Use in a vinaigrette, for a vibrant Italian flavor.
• Top or mix into hummus with any Stonehouse oil.
• Mix into fresh pizza dough.
• Add to meatballs or meatloaf.
