Whether you enjoy making simple dishes or elaborate three-course meals, you can find quality ingredients at the following specialty stores:
Savannah Bee Company
The Savannah Bee Company opened in 2002 and was born out of Ted Dennard's love of bees, beekeeping, and honey. He grew up in coastal Georgia where he learned about bees from an elderly beekeeper, and 35 years later, his passion still hasn't waned. The staff is made up of varied backgrounds, and they enjoy helping customers find the best products for their needs. The honey selection includes tupelo honey, orange blossom honey, and sourwood honey, and shoppers will also find honey roasted coffee and habanero honey barbecue sauce.
The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg
At the Peanut Shop of Williamsburg, all of the Virginia peanuts are prepared in small batches by the roast masters. They use time-honored recipes, and all of the peanuts are cooked in peanut oil with no preservatives. This method cannot be duplicated in a mass production process, and each batch is both visually inspected and taste-tested. The peanuts are available salted or unsalted, and the selection also includes almonds, pecans, and whole cashews.
