If you want to be a hero, shero or just the most welcomed visitor at a party, bring along one of McEvoy Ranch's gift sets.
While we have some spectacular wine offerings, sometimes wine is not an appropriate hostess gift. The olive oil sets, tapenades and olives, savory jams, and marmalade and honey sets are perfect for those, "I don't know them very well" circumstances. You always look better showing up at the door with a gift in your hand. My favorite olive oil set is the Lemon Olive Oil and the Jalapeno Olive Oil. The Lemon is perfect for many things from cooking to garnishing where you want that citrus sparkle and the Jalapeno is unusual enough to create a sensation. This oil is the dream solution to add all the flavor and aroma of jalapeno but with a very subtle delivery of heat. Pozole is a traditional dish this time of year - warm and comforting. The Jalapeno Olive Oil would be a magnificent addition to the bevy of garnishes that make this dish. Here is a recipe from Epicurious for Classic Red Pozole.Classic Red Pozole
