Reduced Shipping Costs

Many of our ingredients are perishable and therefore by necessity, require FEDEX Standard Overnight shipping. There is no way around it - it's costly, and understanding shipping calculations practically requires a degree in actuary science!

In order to help defray your cost of shipping, we have incorporated shipping discounts for many of our finer ingredients. These ingredients are noted on the web site and the discounts will be automatically calculated when the ingredient is added to your cart. These discounts are cumalitive, so you could end up with very low or no shipping charges. (dependant on your location)

The best part is that you might as well add that extra pound of mushrooms, a bottle of truffle oil, some pasta or your favorite "pantry staples" because the shipping costs may not even change!

Artisan/History/Story

Since 1878, these incredible oils have been carefully crafted by J. LeBlanc. Today, the LeBlancs continue a family legacy, and the result is a presence on the finest chefs' tables internationally. The family farm and huileirie are located in France’s Burgundy region in the small town of Iguerande (or “in the middle of nowhere”). The process is truly amazing and unchanged for more than130 years. The olives are cold-pressed using more than 20,000 pounds of mechanical pressure, and then the pumice is pressed for what remains. The oil then rests before bottling.

How to Prep/Store

Store in a dry area in your pantry or counter away from direct sunlight. Best used by date on label. Both flavor and aroma dissipate with age. This is a delightful oil to enjoy with crusty bread and a plate of olives on the side and perhaps some Parmesan or Brie--depending on whether you feel like celebrating in Italian or French style. Also a perfect accompaniment to fresh greens or vegetables. With ingredients this pure "less is more" and allow the flavors to shine!

Recipe Ideas

This is not hard . . . you can not go wrong with some FRESH greens (whatever is in season) and even better if out of your garden or patio salad garden! Wash and dry greens, toss with J Le Blanc olive oil, sprinkle a pinch of flaky fleur de sel and a grind of cracked pepper. Then squeeze half of a fresh lemon and toss. PURE AND DELICIOUS for a real salad.
