  • Charleston Favorites Pickled Okra

    Food for the Southern Soul Charleston Favorites Pickled Okra

    Recipes, like gumbo and red rice, often incorporate okra for a snap of crunchy-goes-creamy texture. However, pickled okra is one of the easiest ways to keep it on hand. It’s a staple in pantries across the South. While you can make it from scratch, it takes weeks or even a month of waiting for it to settle into crisp, tangy perfection. A shortcut that’s just as delicious as the homemade version is a jar of Charleston Favorites Pickled Okra. Specialty foods creator and restaurateur Jimmy Hagood saw the principal role that pickled okra plays in the Southern household. He introduced it into his Food for the Southern Soul brand as part of the Charleston Favorites collection. Food for the Southern Soul celebrates the signature foods and flavors of the Gulf, Appalachia, Lowcountry, Piedmont, and beyond. Pickled Okra is just the start of it: The offerings include assorted condiments, ingredients, and snacks that range from pepper jelly to peach chutney and coarse-ground grits to artisanal gumbo. And the thing you don't wanna left is Mr. Jimmie’s Fire Roasted Tomato Bloody Mary, it brings Southern flavors to tables around the country with treats like fruit chutney, benne wafers, cheese straws, gumbo, and grits. You may also like the Pickled Pink Variety 4-Pack by Pickled Pink Gourmet. Pickled Okra: Think Outside of the Jar We love munching on Pickled Okra straight from the jar, but we’d be remiss to use it for that alone. Use it as cornichons on a pate plate or charcuterie spread. Or try garnishing a Bloody Mary or hot and dirty with a spear. Chop it up and add to salads for a zippy crunch, and Pickled Okra will even make an unexpected topping on a fried chicken sandwich. If you have guests over and need an appetizer—fast—a plate of okra stuffed with cream cheese is always a winner in our book.

  • Peach Chutney

    Food for the Southern Soul Peach Chutney

    Chutney–an intriguing cross between pickled vegetables and preserves–is about as representative of the Southern pantry as a bag of grits. The condiment itself boasts ties to global origins–imagine the chutneys found in Indian or Caribbean cuisine. From place to place, the fruit and sugar base gets paired with various spices, seasonings, onions, garlic, or vinegars to create a product that complements other regional flavors. A traditional Southern chutney doesn’t get much more classic than this Peach Chutney. Made from fresh, regionally grown peaches, it’s an instant taste of summer that lasts through the dead of winter. Delicately sweetened, textured, and slightly tangy, this spread brings a sweet dimension to meats or cheese plates.  This Charleston Favorites Peach Chutney comes from the Food for the Southern Soul brand, created by gourmand and restaurateur Jimmy Hagood. Food for the Southern Soul celebrates the quintessential foods and flavors of the Lowcountry, Appalachia, Gulf, Piedmont, and beyond.

Serve it with pork chops, chicken, Sweet and Salty Snack or a flaky white fish. Or use it to dress up appetizers: Try dipping spring rolls into it, or dollop it over pimento cheese and crackers.

  • Fire-Roasted Bloody Mary Mix

    Food for the Southern Soul Fire-Roasted Bloody Mary Mix

    Started as simply vodka and tomato juice, the Bloody Mary cocktail we find today has elevated to something almost akin to a long-perfected family recipe: Everyone has their own tweak to it—some carefully sourcing all ingredients from scratch, others relying on a mixer to get things started, and all seasoning to their liking. And (depending on how it’s garnished) it can almost be a meal. This particular Fire-Roasted Bloody Mary Mix is for the cocktail maker who likes equal parts convenience and history. Created by Food for the Southern Soul, this heat-kissed mixer pays homage to Charleston during Prohibition—the era that transformed the iconic drink—and one of the area’s much-beloved characters, Mr. Jimmie. He was a renowned golfer, tennis player, and conversationalist who lived in the Holy City until the 1960s. During the 1920s, he grew particularly keen on the Bloody Mary, using a seasoned, fire-roasted tomato mixture that served as today’s inspiration for the Fire-Roasted Bloody Mary Mix. Beyond the Fire-Roasted Bloody Mary Mix The Food for the Southern Soul brand is dedicated to making the South’s signature flavors, ingredients, and dishes accessible around the country. In addition to beverage mixers, you’ll find an abundant offering of Carolina Gold rice, barbecue sauces and rubs, peach chutney, coarse-ground grits, and more. For brunch, tailgate parties, or whenever the craving strikes, we like shaking this mix with our favorite vodka (try it with Absolut Peppar for a kick), a couple of squeezed lime wedges, and pouring over fresh ice in a glass rimmed with Old Bay seasoning. Garnish with a blue cheese-stuffed Pickled Okra Charleston SC spear if you’re feeling adventurous!

  • Creole Gumbo

    Food for the Southern Soul Creole Gumbo

    The flavorful, spiced Creole roots of Gumbo go beyond any particular recipe—they touch on the very history of the Louisiana-born stew. Its name derives from the west African word for okra, and the roux comes from French culinary techniques. It was served during the 1803 gubernatorial reception in New Orleans and has grown in popularity and variations across the South over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Chefs and home cooks throughout the region have long perfected recipes they covet. A batch made from scratch can take hours to prepare, but if you want instant satisfaction, this Creole Gumbo from Food for the Southern Soul offers a fast route to the Bayou. The tomato-based stew pulls warmth from bell peppers and texture from okra, and it does the heavy lifting when it comes to getting dinner on the table.

Produced by Lavington Farms, the Charleston Gold Aromatic Rice is representative of the perfect marriage of a quintessential southern staple and a delectable basmati rice with deep international roots. This gold aromatic rice was developed right in South Carolina in the late 20th-century by Drs. Buford Shepard of Clemson University and Gurdev Kush of the International Rice Research Institute. The duo sought to create a short stature gold hulled rice that kept the traditional plush mouth feel of Carolina Gold and maintained the distinct fragrance of an East Indian cool weather rice.

Today, the rice is used in the homes of cooks nationwide, in professional and restaurant kitchens throughout the Lowcountry, and frequently pops up on a number of menus in Charleston’s bustling culinary scene.
