Thank goodness it's Tuesday. I’ve been encountering so many beautiful pumpkins and squashes these days, it has made me itch to give away some delicious didi davis food Vanilla Salt to someone (anyone!) just so they can see how wonderful it is paired with these flavors.
If you thought Vanilla Salt had reached its peak with summer’s bounty of corn on the cob, think again. The perfect possibilities for Autumn pairings are endless – from roasted acorn squash slices to carmelized onions to roast pork to black bean pumpkin soup – Vanilla Salt is the perfect finisher. The hand-chopped Bourbon Vanilla bean draws out the inherent sweetness found in these dishes, but don’t worry, it's never too sweet – it only highlights the deep richness of these warm, cozy dishes.
One lucky Salty Dog’s Blog reader is going to get their very own jar. Just post a response to the question below and you are entered to win. Now I bet YOU’RE excited it is Tuesday.
Please – keep telling your friends about the Salty Dog’s Blog – we need your help to spread the word.

I recently made a roasted pumpkin, yam, and apple salad served over watercress with cippolini onions and toasted walnuts. The idea of adding vanilla salt into the mix is highly intriguing.

I am a vanilla salt addict!! Some sort of yummy fall corn pudding would be on the menu, definitely!

Ted and I would make a Butternut Bisque, and fool some in the family who say they do not like squash!!

For me it would go with pork chops slow cooked with Cipollini onions, that have been caramelized and sprinkled with a little vanilla salt. Yum! Serve this with sauteed greens and hazelnuts, a nice white wine and a smile.

LOVE Vanilla Salt. Sprinkle on Caramel Apple/Tart Cherry Crisp - YUM. Also wildly good on Butternut Gnocchi with Fried Sage Leaves. Don't you just love Fall?

I would use Vanilla Salt in a pumpkin soup recipe that I *love*, and make a few times every fall.

Oatmeal + Celery + Nutmeg + Vanilla Salt = amazing savory/sweet breakfast treat.
