Clumber Honey Glazed Ham with Cloves

A rich and fresh tasting sauce; infused with subtle flavours of garlic and parmesan cheese. A light sauce providing an even and delicious spaghetti coating.

Fusilli ‘spindles’ are like a corkscrew – it is the helter-skelter of the pasta world! The swirly design partnered with the texture created from our traditional bronze-drawn method, leads to a champion sauce-holding ability and such a delightful mouthfeel. The shape is a pretty funky creation when you think about it. We love to eat these stirred into a punchy Bolognese sauce.

One of the all-time favourites: penne. We make our penne ‘rigate’, meaning ridged, which helps this little guy hold its shape and soak up sauce. ‘Penne’ comes from the Italian word for quill and the angled end encourages even more sauce to be scooped up. Safe to say this is one saucy fella. These characteristics mean that this pasta is destined for a baked masterpiece.

Most commonly referred to as ‘shells’, Conchiglie Rigate cuddle sauces more than any other pasta due to the rigid outer and smooth, deep, cave-like interior. They are excellent with lighter sauces and those with chunky pieces. For our family, these shells are the basis for the most awesome twist on ‘Mac ‘n’ Cheese’; each pasta piece oozes cheese and those oh so cheeky bacon pieces seem to magically hide in the centres for an exhilarating crispy surprise.

Similar to Rigatoni, but with more pronounced grooves that actually swirl their way around the pasta. Hence their name, stems from the Latin ‘torquere’, meaning ‘to turn’. Perfect with simple sauces, zesty salads and fish dishes. Big, bold and mighty in appearance, texture and taste.

Ridged tubes of pasta almost as wide as they are long, with furrows down the outside. Rumoured to be hard to find and unlikely to be appreciated outside of Rome, this stylish number is making its debut in Yorkshire. They are capable of holding a range of sauces, from substantial and meaty to creamy and velvety.

Devilishly salty and definitely spice forward. Fermented Chinese Black Beans have a uniquely savoury and satisfying flavour like no other. With fruity notes above a rich, miso-like base, this cheeky condiment can add a SPICY! kick to just about any dish. Splash it liberally on your eggs, rice, salads, and stews. Soup up your soups or top off your tofu. Basically, put it on everything. This stuff’s a game changer.

This soft, smooth and mellow red has ripe, plummy fruit and is delightfully easy drinking. It is grown in an area where the warm sunny climate and ideal soil conditions allow the quality of the grapes to shine through. Modern wine production methods and carefully managed viticulture result in a wine with a rich, ripe and fruity character of a consistently high quality.

Made with wind, sea and thorns on the West Coast of Scotland, Blackthorn Salt is the ultimate transformative ingredient for today’s kitchen. Poignant and bittersweet, with a taste echoing sea, Blackthorn Salt adds a rolling moreishness to any meal. This attractive 120g Blackthorn box is perfect for as a thoughtful wee present, to include in a hamper or for foodies looking to broaden their salt knowledge and try something different without having to spend too much. We would recommend keeping this wee box out on the table for adding that finishing sprinkle. It’s designed to keep the salt safe, dust free and is handily wide enough to take a pinch, but is also free from any plastics, is sustainably sourced and fully recyclable.

Smoked using cherry and apple wood, these flakes intensify savoury dishes and work remarkably well in desserts and sweet sauces.

We are very proud to be the sole producer of the supreme and multi-award-winning Alderton ham. “A Rick Stein Food Hero and he knows what he’s talking about”.The Country Victualler is proud to have supplied Alderton Hams to Partridges of Sloane Street since their opening in 1973, also Fortnum and Mason. Created in the small village of Alderton by Colonel Dickinson, late of the Royal Ulster Rifles, his recipe for this deliciously moist and succulently sweet ham with a smokey undertone has been passed down through the generations but never altered. It’s still made today as he originally created it. Steamed and then baked with a traditional Marmalade glaze, to our secret recipe, is what makes this ham a firm favourite with the well-heeled of London and ham lovers across the Country.
