Make a difference— make your pepper, Penzeys Pepper. Back to School 2015 With August 6th marking the 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 Zucchini Cake 9 we thought it would be good and right to focus on cooks who work to educate about the events that set the Act in motion, and the positive impact actually CHILI PEPPERS & POWDERS 10-12 enforcing the right to vote has had on our country. As once again there are 14-17 those who are using unfounded fears to place obstacles along the path to voting that have a greater impact on minority voters, it’s important to remind Nancy’s Apple Pecan Pie ourselves of how much was achieved 50 years ago and at such a cost. John’s Breakfast Bowl 16 I can understand there is a world of that revolves around Cornmeal Soufflé 16 exceptionality and elitism where the featured foods flow from the anger of celebrity chefs. In that world it might be hard to see the connection between Summer Salad 22 cooking and the Voting Rights Act. But in our world, people cook to take care of those around them and people give away their cooking because of the way the BBQ Tri-Tip with Homemade 23 gift of cooking has of setting better futures in motion for everyone. In our world cooking and the Voting Rights Act pretty much come from the very same PEPPERS & PEPPERCORNS 26-29 place. When you treat people with dignity and compassion the world really Company Meal does become a better place. And where empathy and compassion abound, great recipes are always close at hand. Sweet Drop Biscuits with Strawberries 31 With all this in mind, in this catalog we are introducing the new Penzeys FIND A PENZEYS STORE NEAR YOU 32 Pepper. First off it’s great pepper; the best really. If you were a fan of our Penzeys Freshly Ground Pepper, you will like the flavor of Penzeys Pepper even Chopped Greek Salad 35 more. If there was a weakness to the Freshly Ground, its particle size was Banana Walnut Buttermilk Muffins 36 slightly too large to work well with foods that were neither hot nor moist. So for Penzeys Pepper we’ve added about 20% finer ground pepper, which may seem Fried Green Tomatoes 37 like a small thing, but when it comes to foods like sandwiches, salads or simply a hard-boiled egg, the flavor comes through so much better. Summer Black-Eyed Pea Salad 39 The other big difference with Penzeys Pepper is our pledge. For every jar we sell Sweet Potato Casserole 41 or give away to our customers through promotions, we will be donating an additional jar to organizations that feed people in need. So by getting a jar of Salmon Croquettes 48 Penzeys Pepper not only are you providing the very best in pepper for yourself and the people you cook for, you are also providing the same for someone in Favorite Salad 49 need.

VANILLA 50-53 For too many in need, meals often are what others have rejected or made with Sour Cream Pound Cake ingredients beyond their best-by dates. From our customers I’ve learned the optimism that comes with cooking. I just believe that the idea of there still Pickled Black-Eyed Peas 52 being people out there who care enough to give you the option to season your Tilapia Salad 53 food with the very best pepper the world has to offer is going to make a difference for someone somewhere. Please help make Penzeys Pepper a GIFT BOXES & CRATES 54 success. Cheesy Spinach with Brown Rice 60 And if you have the chance to get our new Penzeys Pepper, you really should use it to season John’s Breakfast Bowl on page 16. So much of what we are Polynesian Ribs 60 trying to do is keep the spirit of cooking alive. Keeping the history of the Civil Rights Movement alive is important too. In John’s Breakfast Bowl both live side INDEX 61 by side literally in the same bowl. Don’t miss this chance to connect to the best of our humanity. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did. Enjoy.

“I would describe my choice of career as the pursuit of public service, in which politics often played a role, but of equal importance were my efforts to help make public agencies function effectively and fairly in serving all people,” says John G. Stewart of Knoxville, Tennessee. “I had the good fortune to be present and right in the middle of things, in the Senate, as the historic events of the Civil Rights Act unfolded. “As Senator and then Vice President Hubert H.

“Each of us is just one person but one person can make a difference. Don’t just talk about it, look for a way to make a difference daily in your own neighborhood.” A teacher of U.S. history and government for more than 35 years, that is the number one lesson Ernestine Krehbiel tries to impress upon her students. Ernestine certainly practices what she preaches. As a young woman, she moved to Baltimore and became active in the Civil Rights Movement. Every weekend, dressed in her Sunday best, Ernestine went with a group of friends, black and white, into restaurants that only served whites, Ernestine’s Company Meal knowing they would not be served.

28 PENZEYS SPICES | BACK TO SCHOOL Peppermills and Salt Shakers

The ONLY peppermills worthy of the World’s Best Peppercorns!

We designed our peppermills to be fully adjustable—from shaker grind to coarse. To fill the peppermill and adjust the grind, unscrew the nut on top of the mill, lift off the wood cap, fill with peppercorns, then place the top back on. The tighter the top is screwed on, the finer the ground pepper will be. If the top is screwed halfway down, there will be a large opening in the grinding mechanism, allowing big chunks of pepper to fall through. If the top is screwed down tightly, there will be a small opening for fine pepper. Our salt shakers have larger holes in the top and are designed to be used with coarse style flake salt. Fine table salts may pour too quickly out of the top.

history and it’s going to go away if we don’t remember it. To get young people involved with that history, it’s thrilling,” she says. The quilters organized their own Unity March, walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma. In 1965, on the day known as Bloody Sunday, state troopers and county posse men attacked peaceful activists attempting to march to Montgomery. “They wanted to commemorate what happened and that they could walk together today,” Lillis says. “And they wanted to celebrate that.” The civil rights demonstrations and marches led to change, most notably the Voting Rights Act of 1965. “Back then we knew what we had to do and we did it,” says Ms. Annie, now 69, who retired as an EKG technician. “I had to sit in the back of the bus even if there were seats in the front. The ‘Colored’ peoples had to go to the back of the bus. We could clean up in the stores, but there were no black cashiers.”

Lillis loves the story behind this picture taken at the Museum of the Archives in Montgomery. The young men walked into an open session for The March Quilts project. “They asked, ‘Can we make a quilt block?’ “ Lillis says. “And they joined in.” She was a student at a private church school in 1963, when she and others wanted to join the Children’s Marches in Birmingham. “We were told, ‘If you students don’t go back to class, no one will graduate.’ We would be expelled and we wouldn’t graduate,” she says. Fried Green Tomatoes Lillis writes, “When I asked Ms. Annie and Ms. Gloria about the fried green tomatoes, you should have Ms. Annie did not join the marches heard them fussing at me for asking about measurements or time.

One of his cousins moved to Selma, and in 1963 became the director of the Selma Public Library,” Penny recalls. “However, one of her conditions for accepting the job was that be integrated.” The library board agreed to that request, but there was a twist: “They integrated by removing all the chairs, thus creating ‘vertical integration.’ ” The new director saw to it that the chairs were returned, and Penny proudly notes, “The Selma library was the only library in Alabama to The families, Penny says, “graciously Sour Cream Pound Cake This very large, super-moist cake is great as is, or top be integrated either without a court housed and fed us, even though our with your favorite berries and whipped cream for an order or a demonstration. being there was a threat to them.

Mahoning Valley Sojourn to the Past has now been operating for nine years, and has trained dozens of new student activists. The students have established programs of their own, including “Nonviolence Week in Ohio,” a permanent statewide resolution that passed in 2013. Micah Smith, another student who traveled through the program, recalls the nonviolence training that the kids learned about on the trip. “We learned the six principles of nonviolence. The one that stood out is, ‘You should love instead of hate.’ “Before I went on the trip, I didn’t care too much. But then I learned that people were beaten, arrested, fined, just trying to register to vote.” Micah has a message for other students. “I remind them about ‘Bloody Sunday.’ People were beaten for just wanting the right to vote.

Note: We seasoned our tilapia with LEMON-PEPPER and THYME, then dusted the chunks with flour and fried in a large pan with 1 Cup oil over medium-high heat in 2 batches, turning once, about 5 minutes per batch. Leftover cold tilapia would be great, too. For the fries, since we had the oil going, we peeled and thinly sliced 2 potatoes and cooked those in 2 batches for about 7 minutes over medium heat right at the very end. That way, the salads were all assembled and the dressing was made, so the fries could be added while nice and hot just before eating.

1-800-741-7787 | WWW.PENZEYS.COM 61 For a really long time cooking did not exist. Then one day someone brought food and flame together. Today we don’t much reflect on what that day meant, but it meant pretty much everything. With cooking, food NEW! moved from scarcity to abundance. The shift from the animal mentality of “stand back and let the big dog eat” to the humanity of “pull up a chair, there is plenty for everyone” set us on a very different path that day. With cooking, our compassion became our strength and our pathway to survival that evolution has rewarded ever since. The day that food and flame came together was a very good day.

I see the Voting Rights Act of 1965 as very much a triumph of the evolutionary path cooking set us on. Our brains have grown so much since that day flame first met food. Our ability to see life not just through our own eyes but also through the eyes of others has served us well. The Voting Rights Act is very much worth celebrating and proof that at times we really do get it right. As species go, I think you have to admit we really do have amazing potential.

Of course, our old animal brains still are a part of us and, at times, get in the way of our better angels. Both 50 years ago in blocking the bridge in Selma and today in the new efforts to place obstacles along the path to voting, our fear and distrust are still very capable of getting the best of us. For me, cooking will always be the quickest path back to the humanity that has served us so well. And as this catalog shows, wherever people are working to help others, great recipes are always close at hand, because that simply is the nature of cooking.

And when it comes to how we treat others, I would like to put in one more plug for our new Penzeys Pepper. It’s so right for so many reasons. Please give it a try. Penzeys Pepper Thanks, A simple shake brings life to salads, sandwiches, pasta, meat, potatoes, soup and eggs. Delicious every time.
