You choose 2lb of ground meat from ground mutton, heritage ground pork, or 1lb of each from the drop-down menu above.

To honor Orthodox Easter we introduce one of our favorite foods with origins in Cyprus. Wrapping mutton or pork in caul fat and seasoning it with onions, spices, and herbs is a tradition that goes back millennia. Sheftalia (the Turkish word for fishing net, because caul fat looks like a net) are delicious oval shaped sausage, boasting the flavor of grilled heritage meat coupled with crisped caul fat casing, which when rendered adds so much flavor and snap.

Each order includes:

• Your Choice of Ground Meat, you choose from 2lb ground mutton, 2lb ground pork, or 1lb of each.

• Heritage Pork Caul Fat, one 5lb bag,  also known as lace fat for its elegant appearance, caul fat is muscle membrane and is frequently used as casing for sausage as well as more refined roulades, pates, and terrines.

• Robusta Black Peppercorns, one 1.8 oz grinder-top jar by Burlap and Barrel, grown in Ea Sar, Vietnam using organic practices and harvested only when the peppercorns are ripe.

• Shawarma Spice Blend*,1.76 oz jar, Villa Jerada, based on a Syrian family recipe.

*Shawarma Spice — paprika, onion powder, nutmeg, cumin, bay leaf, cardamom, garlic powder, ginger, coriander, cayenne, cinnamon, all spice, cloves, turmeric, sumac, black and white pepper. Made in a facility that processes nuts and wheat products.
