ALONG COMES MARY

Growing up, I was such a fan of PB&J sandwiches & that love has never left me, ask anyone! Over the years, I have learned all jams are not created equal, & just like with fruits, some will taste tons better than others. My newest go-to? NAR brand.

When NAR contacted me about a feature, they offered me to sample a wide array of their line. From olive oils to spices, they have it all, but, I knew what my heart was set on…their blueberry & lemon peel jams! 😉

With a world-renowned commitment to quality and craftsmanship, NAR Gourmet brings a fresh vitality to the artisan food scene in the United States. All of NAR Gourmet products are made from painstakingly sourced natural ingredients, harvested by hand at the very peak of ripeness from Turkey’s sun-drenched Mediterranean coast and Anatolian heartland—whether it’s single-variety olives for NAR’s award-winning extra virgin olive oils or plump strawberries for their luscious jams and marmalades.

“Our products are the embodiment of everything that’s healthy and delicious about the Mediterranean diet,” said Samir Bayraktar, CEO of NAR Gourmet. “We are proud to introduce Anatolia’s rich and diverse traditions to the U.S culinary market.”

I love trying new flavors of jam & branching out from the traditional strawberry, grape, & I couldn’t be more happy with blueberry & lemon peel; the latter would even be great in a baking recipe for a pie or pastry. They would be a perfect Mother’s Day or Easter gift, too!
