Jess's Daily Grind & Midweek Munchies
A Veg*n Meme What wonderful foods did you bring home from the grocery store? | |
Midweek Munchies: What Vicki is contributing for the week:
Beautifully organized bulk bins of all kinds! Mostly organic. This is my purchase: Sesame Tahini, Yaya Popcorn, Tempeh Burger, & Vegan Marionberry Scone (Wish I had bought every scone they had -- would have eaten them all!) Couple Questions: Does Tahini need to be refrigerated after opened? What are your favorite ways to use Tahini?

Vicki this delights me to read! <3 that store! They have excellent bulk tofu as well.
The blueberry scones are my favorite - it's ridiculous how large they are! I'm so glad your family was able to stop by Portland.
I keep my opened tahini in the fridge.
First, wonderful list with pics!!!
2nd, I'm jealous of the places you have of (the availability) of vegan items/baked goods.
And last...
Tahini.
I love it!
When I first started buying Tahini I had the same question. I left the Tahini on my shelf in the cupboard for 2 to 3 weeks and it wasn't terrible BUT I read online that you SHOULD refrigerate it! Since then that is what I have been doing...I believe I also read that you should use it once opened within a month...but I am sure I have stretched that a bit.
Oh! I also responded to you comment on my blog. I will be posting a last minute purchase within the hour within the same post...check it out!
I am just a tad envious of all the vegan baked goodies available there!! Lucky you to have shopped there - well, lucky Jess all of the time! :)
I keep my tahini in the fridge after opening, and it keeps very well. I keep all nut butters and nuts/seeds in the fridge too - their oils can go off when not refrigerated. Sometimes I taste a product with walnuts in it (or I buy them in a store), and the walnuts taste "off" and just not pleasant. I refrigerate them as soon as I buy them.
As for tahini - I LOVE making tahini sauces, and also just slathering some on a sandwich with grated carrots and other veg, and other seasonings you like such as mustard and/or Nayonnaise/Vegenaise - very yummy!
I think I will have to go to Portland just for that vegan bakery section.
I always refrigerate anything once it has been opened. Oh, except for agave nectar and siracha hot sauce.
Ohmygosh, to have that kind of CHOICE for goodies!!!
Wow. *swooning*
I have always refrigerated tahini upon opening...
hi jess: wow, dg even has bulk tofu? i saw bulk: grains, spices, dried fruit/nuts, pasta, and i'm sure there's much more. my co-op doesn't even come close on bulk items, it's more packaged -- but they do have an awesome wine selection!
i'm not even kidding when i say that was the very best scone i've ever tasted - vegan or otherwise. no lie. and boggling how many vegan baked items there were to choose from.
hi harmonia: sort of available to me...it's about a 7 hour drive! a bit much for a marionberry scone. LOL! :o) we were just passing through on the way home from the oregon coast.
hi dreena: it really was great to have all those choices in vegan baked goods, but very difficult to decide! thanks for the tip on keeping nuts & all nutty things in the fridge. & a tahini sandwich with carrots sound wonderful.
hi leslie: you would totally dig that bakery being the queen of treats and all! LOL! :o) siracha hot sauce is a new one for me??
hi kleoPatra: delightful & overwhelming for me, but i think one couldn't go wrong with whatever item was chosen.
Siracha (sp?) is a hot sauce I find in the Asian market, but I also always see it in restaurants that are veg friendly as well as Thai. I think they have the ingredients listed in about 5 languages!
Keep more of these food-photo posts coming! I am seriously considering flying there just for treats!
Vicki - I use tahini in hummus (of course!) and also as a sauce for steamed asparagus with orange juice. I can't seem to find the recipe right now though.

WOW! What a bakery. I want to go to Portland... just for that. WOW! Thanks for posting the pictures, words could not describe!
And tempah burgers, at the largest coop I have access to there is always beans and rice or soup for vegan variety.
hi everyone. I'm actually into shoes and I had been digging as far as something that exact model. The prices for the sneakers were all over 230 pounds everwhere. But definitively I bring about this location selling them for the benefit of half price. I absolutely like those [url=http://www.shoesempire.com]prada sneakers[/url]. I will absolutely purchase them. what is your opinion?
Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
