Syrup
We Love Sappy Endings!
… and beginnings and in-betweens! Drizzled over berries,
whipped into compound butters, glazed over roast turkey
or pork, served with a dessert course of bold, piquant blue
Roquefort, when it comes to maple syrup, it’s a sweet affair
from dawn till dusk (and then some)!
And we’re not talking about just any old tree sap.
Market District 100% pure maple syrup is premium,
gourmet, dark amber nectar harvested from pristine stands
of Canadian maple. Luxuriantly thick, caramelly sweet
and fresh tasting, it is a true revelation if you’ve never
experienced the pleasure of authentic maple syrup.
And how sweet is it that Valentine’s Day is right around
the corner (depending on when you read this)? What
better time to treat your love to an alluring meal dappled
with 100% pure maple syrup? There isn’t one, actually …

Valentine’s
with Rich Rosenberg,
Buyer of All Things Decadent
Well, at least three of them. This month, Rich is proposing the ultimate Valentine’s Day
trifecta — Mascarpone (pronounced mas-car-pony), the now epic Iberico ham and classic
Caviar with a little bubbly (which is a requisite, really, so needn’t be counted as part of
the tremendous trio). OK, and a crusty loaf of our fresh-baked bread … and maybe some
chocolate-dipped strawberries. That makes six, but who's counting?
1
Mascarpone
Hailing from the enchanting Lombardy region of Italy, though made domestically around
the world, Mascarpone is crafted simply from cow’s cream and citric or acetic acid. It
is heated and strained through a finely woven cheesecloth, and what’s left is a 65%-75%
butterfat cheese, which is angelic in both flavor and texture — the ultimate Cool Whip!
Renowned for its role in Tiramisù, Mascarpone is a romance of flavors when mixed with
anchovies, mustard and spices, and spread on the aforementioned fresh-baked, crusty bread
— Mamma Mia!!
We have two versions, the first made devotedly by BelGioioso in Wisconsin. As experts
in the crafting of true Italian cheeses, their authentic Mascarpone is lavished with rich
flavor and highly desireable, 8oz., $5.99.
We also carry Imported Gelmini Mascarpone, made for three generations on the banks
of the Ticino River in Lombardy, Italy. Passionately crafted with only the freshest cream
sourced from local cows, theirs is a fine example of this classic Italian cooking ingredient.
As full-bodied as fresh cheeses come, its texture and flavor fall somewhere
in-between thick whipped cream and butter — milky, creamy and sweet, 250 gr., $4.99.
Then there is Burrata (boo-rot-ta), also made by BelGioioso. On the outside you’ve got
your fresh Mozzarella, while inside is a mixture of doughy, stringy curd and fresh cream.
Originally crafted in the Apulia region of Italy, Burrata is ardently fresh and made to be
eaten immediately. Simply quarter, drizzle with Market District extra virgin olive oil and
sprinkle with fresh-ground black pepper, 8 oz., $8.99.

Rare 5J (Cinco Jotas) Pure Breed Iberico de Bellota
One of the finest flavors on earth (says I), Iberico de Bellota is made
from Pata Negra or black hoof pigs who graze on the acorns
(“bellota”) that give this jamon its truly exquisite flavor. Tender,
juicy and unspeakably delicious.
Royal Oscietra Caviar
2.8-3.2 millimeters in size, Royal Oscietra, which
comes only from sturgeons that are 9-11 years of
age (so worth the wait), is dark to medium with
warm amber shades. Its texture is velvety,
firm and consistent, and its character is very
creamy with an exceptionally complex
flavor of butter and nuts. Delightful!
20gr., $99.99 ea.; 30gr., $139.99 ea.;
50gr., $229.99 ea.

Day Trio!
Rich’s Pairing Pick
Veuve Clicquot Rosé
A delightfully luscious, fruit-based bubbly, this wine has a luminous
color with attractive pink glints. The nose is generous and elegant,
with initial aromas of fresh red fruit (raspberry, wild strawberry,
cherry, blackberry), leading to biscuity notes
of dried fruits and Viennese pastries (almonds,
apricots and brioche). The fresh first impression
is followed by a fruity harmonious sensation on
the palate, perfectly balanced, combining both
elegance and flair.
The Trifecta Topper
Chocolate-Covered, Mascarpone-Filled Strawberries
Looking for a Valentine’s Day gift that imparts indulgence with
every bite? Visit our Cheesemongers for our exclusive, handmade
Chocolate-Covered Mascarpone Strawberries — a classic you
won’t find anywhere else. Indescribably decadent and lavish,
these juicy, fresh strawberries are filled with our rich and velvety
Mascarpone filling and then kissed with unbelievably creamy milk
chocolate. Serve gracefully with something bubbly like Vietti
Moscato d’Asti, Domaine Chandon California Champagne,
Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Brut or even Sandeman Tawny Port!

to use up the lard, sugar, fruit and the eggs, which
were prohibited during Lent.
