OMEIO – the latest new online organic deli for Sydney-siders

Omeio is Sydney’s newest online store that provides fine, organic, artisan food delivered to your door.  It was founded by a gorgeous young couple with Greek background- Niko and Klara- both passionate about organic products and wholesome foods.  Klara’s background is in psychology and she works as a bilingual counsellor with migrant communities. Niko currently works as a chef in an organic restaurant in Surry Hills.  

Following a two year venture sourcing the finest organic products, they have just launched this week their online deli which offers a unique shopping experience to all Sydney siders. 

What sets Omeio  apart from all other on-line stores is that they have chosen, and work exclusively with, ONE artisan for each product category in order to limit the choice to only the highest quality goods.  They have chosen to stock my activated nuts, muesli, chocolate, power bars, and date coconut balls. Ovvio Organic spices were chosen for the spice category, Pepe Saya for the dairy category,  Miellerie from Tassie for honey and The Big Marquee for coffee. All the food items available on their online store are handpicked, handmade and packaged by the artisans themselves.  I am also impressed by their range of local and International print books and magazines on offer including Gather, Modern Farmer and Kinfolk. 

They are currently offering free delivery to the entire Sydney metro area until Thursday 11th September. 

You might be interested to know that the name Omeio comes from the Greek word “Ομειος”, which means the same or similar. It represents the idea that all we need to be healthy can be found in nature, and the more similar our lifestyle and diet are to the elements we can find in nature, the better our lives will be.

My new Chocolate Power Bars now available for sale!

My original power bars just got a whole lot better.…with raw cacao powder blended through plus a layer of my sokolata (raw dark maple sweetened chocolate) drizzled over the top. The inspiration for this came about when Sonja Langereis threw down the gauntlet a couple weeks ago and challenged me to make something similar that were floating around on FaceBook (chocolate coated buckwheat bars from memories). I looked at the ingredients in them, and crafted my own version using my power bars as the base. This is the bomb!

Now retailing from my home at $7.90/100g. To purchase, simply text or call me 0407 871 884 to arrange a mutually convenient time to collect from at 23 Kent St Waverley NSW.

My original power bars are still available for sale @ $5.50/100g

Cooking segment on bone broth and casseroles with Paleo Foodies

I recently was asked by the lovely Alison Sims of Paleo Foodies to do a cooking segment on how to make your own bone broth (stock) at home, and then how you can use the  bone broth as a key ingredient in a slow cooked lamb casserole. Check out the U-Tube clip here and Alison's blog post here.

To learn more and for a stack of recipes, nutritional information and helpful hints, come to one of my bone broth and/or casserole cooking classes which I run periodically from my home in Waverley.

For those who don't have the time, energy or inclination to make their own broth, I sell chicken, beef, fish and pork broth from wild/pastured animal bones ($10.50/700ml) in BPA-free recyclable containers. Perfect for the forthcoming winter months to build strong immunity and digestion and heal the gut. To learn how to incorporate broth into your diet click here, here and here.

Happy cooking!
