Comfort Food for Cooler Weather at Ripe Cooperative

This week, stop by the café to enjoy a comforting yet summery plate of Malfadine Amatriciana with garden tomatoes, peppers, red onion, house pancetta and a generous dusting of cheese.

We’re also unveiling a 2021 edition of a BEAST classic – Gazpacho with heirloom tomatoes, and a panzanella with housemade sourdough, yellow watermelon, and basil oil.

Entertaining or unwinding at home? Pick up the stuff to make Amatriciana yourself with our fresh bronze-cut malfadine pasta, jarred Amatriciana sauce, and Epic Cheese Blend, or pre-order any of our easy, tomato-filled finish-at-home meals, like Eggplant Parmesan or Lasagna Bolognese. Just add a quick salad for a quick dinner!

Many of the tomatoes these days are coming from Naomi’s garden. If you want inspiration on what else you can do with your own garden-full, keep an eye on her Instagram for recipes and videos coming soon.

WE’RE TAKING ON AN ALL-TIME FAVORITE

Speaking of comfort food, we’re taking a classic, all-time favorite ice cream flavor up a notch. Freshly spun Mint Chocolate Chip frozen custard takes our rich sweet cream base and layers in thin strands of dark chocolate and just the right amount of garden-fresh mint. You’ll never look at the green stuff the same again.

Pre-order here before it sells out!

Joining Mint Chocolate Chip this week is another classic, Malted Chocolate. Transport yourself back to the diner days one pint at a time!

See you Thursday through Saturday!
