What do you get when you pair a Mexican chef with a former Top Chef contestant from New Zealand? For starters, lime and kiwifruit marmalade, tequila ketchup and the host of other excellent jams, pickles and preserves found on the menu--and for sale on the shelf--at Park Slope's new Get Fresh Table and Market.
Juventino Avila (formerly of Bonita and Double Crown) partnered with Mark Simmons (of Public and Top Chef) on this shop, where they create ready-to-eat meals from local, seasonal ingredients, as well as a rotating selection of condiments to experiment with at home.
When they're not holding their popular Sunday hog roasts or serving weekend brunch, they dream up small batches of inventive preserves, including fragrant garam-spiced apple jam (great with roasted pork or morning oatmeal), and zippy pickled carrots and burdock root (for your next Prospect Park picnic).
You can preview the preserves at Get Fresh's restaurant--homemade blood-orange marmalade accompanies the miso-cured beef--before taking a jar home to re-create (if you dare) Simmons's Down Under favorite: tequila ketchup on Weet-Bix.
Get Fresh Market and Table, 370 Fifth Ave. (near Fifth St.), Brooklyn; 718-360-8469 or getfreshnyc.com
