Once again we are at that time of year when to do my job I need to politely encourage you to think about Penzeys for your holiday giving. We’ve worked hard to make buying our spice gifts a worthwhile thing to do. Yes we have good spices. Great spices even, but we also understand that while our customers appreciate our quality, what they are really trying to share this time of year with a gift of our spices is all the happiness cooking has brought to their lives. We know the gift may be spices, but the hope for the gift is that it opens the door to all the great things that become possible when good food causes friends and loved ones to linger around the dinner table just a little bit longer. Quality is a good start, but to share the happiness of cooking, it takes heart as well.

We’ve spent a lifetime watching the lives of cooks unfold and totally agree that what those lives become is very much worth sharing. Over the years we’ve become cooks ourselves. While we are all about great spices, we’ve come to understand, to have the best chance to share the gift of cooking, we also need to be equally about heart, and smiles, and stories that radiate an overwhelming sense of welcome to all. At Penzeys we do our best to bring spice to life by showing all the good things set in motion when people care enough to cook. We work to make every gift from Penzeys an invitation to a life made richer through connecting to family, friends, community and the larger world around us.

The understanding that to best do our jobs we must embrace humanity as well as quality has set all sorts of good things in motion for us, including ever better spices. Now when we travel out into the world, it’s that very same spirit of compassion that cooks share around the table that we carry out into the world with us. This spirit of compassion has opened doors that we never even noticed before, and that have in turn helped us to bring back the very best in flavor the world has to offer. We can report firsthand that the very same spirit that works around our kitchen tables works around the world as well. Kindness Works. It’s a gift well worth sharing.

So I would like to politely put in a pitch for our two new Holiday Welcome boxes. They really are an incredible deal. With great Spices and Seasonings, towels with heart, plus the awesome Heal the World magnet, each box really does hold a wonderful Welcome to the world of cooking. With their pleasing blend of spices and humanity, the Welcome boxes are just right for sharing all that you love about cooking with all the people you love. And the price is incredible—please give lots.

And in this spirit of Welcome this catalog holds a treasure of great recipes from great people who give of themselves to welcome in those who the holidays might otherwise leave feeling left out. Cooks are wonderful. Share the Spirit.

Happy Holidays,

Banana Cake This recipe has been a favorite in Stephen’s family for generations.

1 ⁄2 Cup shortening or butter 1 1 ⁄2 Cups sugar 2 eggs 1 tsp. PURE VANILLA EXTRACT 2 Cups four 1 ⁄4 tsp. baking powder 3 ⁄4 tsp. baking soda 1 ⁄2 tsp. salt 1 Cup mashed, very ripe bananas (2 large) 1 Cup buttermilk or sour milk (mix 1 Cup milk with 1 TB. vinegar to make sour milk) 1 Cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, optional

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar. Add the eggs and VANILLA and mix well. Add the four, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well. Add the bananas and buttermilk and mix. Fold in the chocolate chips, if using. Pour the batter into a greased and foured Bundt pan. Bake at 350° for 60-75 minutes. Test the center to determine whether it is done—it should be risen, brown, springy to the touch, and a toothpick should come out mostly clean.

Saturday nights are his best chance to get together with friends and usually that’s for some kind of potluck. Lamb shanks are a favorite dish to bring. While the recipe keeps changing, the one constant is “enough beer to cover it” while it cooks. Cooking also can make for wonderful date nights. “To be able to cook with someone, it’s been fun for me,” he says. “When I was teaching elementary school, I would cook something and bring in food for the kids. I used to bring in bread for my undergraduates, and bake for my elementary students, too.” Stephen isn’t sure where he will begin his career as a professor. He knows that, wherever that is, he wants to help teachers help kids learn to love math—and be part of a Lamb Shanks welcoming and aware community. Shanks a lot for this recipe, Stephen! Sorry about the bad pun, Stephen. “I can live pretty much anywhere with air conditioning and the 2-3 lbs. lamb shanks (3 or so) 2 TB. vegetable oil (optional, for browning) Internet,” he says, with a laugh. 2-3 bottles dark, favorful beer (Stephen uses Celebrator Doppelbock) “Everything is a learning experience.” 1-2 tsp.

Brown the lamb shanks in vegetable oil over medium-high heat, several minutes per side. This step is optional, but we always do it. Then you can use a pressure cooker or a covered pan in a 300° oven. Combine the lamb shanks, beer (enough to cover the lamb), ROSEMARY, THYME and GARLIC. In a pressure cooker, cook until the meat is tender and barely clings to the bone (35-45 minutes). In the oven, cook 3-4 hours, basting every half hour or so. Remove the lamb from the pan and set aside. Over high heat, reduce the pan liquid, combined with salt, PEPPER and as much butter as desired, until it is thick and glossy. Stephen pours the liquid from his pressure cooker into a “frighteningly hot” cast iron skillet for this step. Top the lamb with the sauce and serve.

28 PENZEYS SPICES | HOLIDAY 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.

*All peppermills come filled with Tellicherry black peppercorns and salt shakers with Kosher-style flake salt.
