Yes. Out of Africa blend from Klatch. It uses beans from Kenya, Ethiopia and Uganda. Also ordered their Sumo Batak from Sumatra, their Panamanian single origin. I'm picking up some local extras, including a half-pound of Jamaican Blue Mountain. It is a regular at my preferred roasters, but they don't order much on a month to month basis in green beans. They order a lot in the last months of the year because the demand rises.
I'm not into potato salad. I'll eat it, but I prefer something non dairy based for a binder or dressing. And no eggs. It is very interesting how various cultures have their own take on potato salad. I've had some lovely ones in the past. We've even got a book on various potato salads from around the globe. I've had potato salad in the former bloc, too. Russia's take was interesting. I think there was potato in it, swimming in it...somewhere.
Eerily similar to what was one of the mainstays in our family. Sub out the French dressing for poppy seed dressing, and throw in some tartness. No sugar. Some cilantro and dijon (grain) worked well, too. I don't mind mayonnaise. A small amount lends some creaminess. It's how they treat the stuff. As if it's the second coming of Christ.
I've always preferred using honey. Easier to dissolve and it's a natural emulsifier. Adds a certain thickness, too, and doesn't crystallize when exposed to air.
Is organic rare in the isles? It's become common form over the last 18-20 years here. Though I live in a coastal state. Particularly one that's health conscious. I'd say 90% of the products at a typical grocer's is organic now.
I may have to go for a second cup just to round out the morning.
