We came across sauerkraut a few years after starting The Organic Place when introduced to the Kehoe’s Kitchen range. It didn’t take long for us to be researching the health benefits of fermented food and the link with maintaining good gut health. Over time it has led to us experimenting in the kitchen making our […]

The creamy garlic potato dish of everyone’s dreams! Potato gratin is comfort food at its finest – and when you make it with one-of-a-kind organic potatoes, you know it’s going to be absolutely top notch. Organic potatoes are usually waxy and don’t sink into smooth softness as easily as floury potatoes do, but a gratin […]
We can’t tell you how much better-tasting organic asparagus is – we’re sure you already know! – and often only needs a little salt and something yum to dip it in. Enter: hollandaise sauce.
