The Humble Pumpkin, a Versatile Ingredient

Fall lovers rejoice: Pumpkin season has arrived! As the leaves turn vibrant shades of red and gold, pumpkins take center stage in this autumnal celebration.

When it comes to game day, two things are essential: thrilling football action and delicious food. While fans across the world unite to cheer for their favorite teams, there’s one name in the culinary world that’s scoring big—La Brea Bakery.

August is a bit of a holiday wasteland, with no major festivities on the calendar in the U.S. However, there is one tasty reason to rejoice—it’s National Panini Month!

The shareable, interactive element of “building” a grazing board is one of the very same reasons consumers love pizza— so why is it so rare to see pizzerias include charcuterie boards as a menu item?

When it comes to sandwiches, there’s a world of flavor out there. Quite literally. From the Mexican torta to the Italian panini, American cheeseburger to Vietnamese Bánh mì, cultures all over this great planet love to show off what they can create on simple slices of bread. 

To some, a single slice of toast is just a place to put butter, jelly, peanut butter, or cinnamon and sugar. But not you. You see it as a canvas for creativity. And if you don’t, you will soon. Because there’s more to toast than using it to build the expected.
