Grumpy Ginger
 |
Food Products |
Hello! I'm Sue Ann, founder of Grumpy Ginger. Like many Malaysians, food is what I miss most about home. I’ve been living in the US for over a decade, and each time I travel back from Kuala Lumpur my bags are so stuffed with herbs and spices I struggle to get them under the plane’s weight limit. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found myself cooking in search of a piece of home. Food was how my parents expressed their love, and I’m no different. I’ve converted Jackson’s American palate so he asks for curry instead of pasta for dinner, an achievement I’m especially proud of. Malaysian food is far less well known than other Asian cuisines in the US. I hope Grumpy Ginger can help spread the word. The combo of waft-worthy flavor and simplicity make it hard to beat - but I'll let you try it and decide for yourself! |

Zwïta
 |
Food Products |
Although born and mostly raised in the United States, we have been blessed to spend a significant part of our childhood in Tunisia, the land of our origins. This double cultural perspective as first generation Tunisian Americans allowed us to see with clear eyes how underrepresented Tunisian culture is in the United States; particularly with regards to food. This has frustrated us for a long time which is why we eventually founded Zwïta, named after our maternal great grandmother, where we offer ancestral Tunisian food products that make your life tastier. We are on a quest to enlighten the world about our Tunisian roots through artisanal food products that are representative of our family heritage. |

Brushfire Farms
 |
Food Products |
James Vives started Brushfire Farms, a small business based in San Antonio, Texas, back in 2018. It all started from a family recipe passed down to James that utilized the Chile Pequin pepper. This small chile is a fairly common native pepper to South Texas and Northern Mexico, but unlike its jalapeño, serrano and habanero cousins, is seldom used in the food world. With this pepper, James created a unique pepper jam we call Ol Tejano. Our development has been a truly local story, and we’ve been recognized nationally and internationally for our tremendous flavors. In 2019, we won a prestigious Good Food Award for our Peach – Aji Limon aka Hill Country Heat and also an International Spicy Flav Award for our Prickly Pear – Chile Pequin Jam aka Pear Burner. In 2020 we created a prickly pear simple syrup using the juice from hand picked prickly pear in South Texas. Picking these seasonal pears is no easy task due to the rugged terrain and dead heat of the summer. These native pears come from the Rio Grande Prickly Pear Cactus that grows by the natural sunlight and rainfall South Texas provides. Our prickly pear simple syrup goes great with any cocktail you want to add a little South Texas Sweetness to. We are telling a story – and developing products that are unique to Texas! |
