Cassava Is The Secret To Gluten-Free Flour Puffs From Coyotas

Add cassava to that tortilla wardrobe. The new line, Coyotas, is one of the flour tortillas. It uses organic gluten-free cassava flour and organic coconut oil with only water and salt. The result behaves like flour tortillas, holds well with the filling and comes in three sizes: small for tacos, medium for large tacos and quesadillas, and large for burritos and other wraps. The company, based in San Diego, was started by Janet Flores Pavlovich, a native of Hermosillo in Sonora, Northern Mexico, where the flour tortilla reigns supreme. He learned to make it in his hometown and while there, he invented new things using cassava flour. And in one of those happy cooking accidents like the Toll House cookie, it’s paired with a gluten-free product. There are 12 in the pack of small, eight medium and six large; three packs for $37.50.

Caper Obsessives Gift Basket

I’m not sure if I would have given my mother a gift basket of herbs and capers from the Sicilian volcanic island of Pantelleria for Mother’s Day. But me? Whenever. John A. Savittieri, a furniture designer from Maplewood, NJ, was exploring his family’s roots on the island when he fished for capers, the sweet shoots of the capparis spinosa flower that thrives there. Fast forward a year or so, and now he imports them, small ones or piccoli, packed in Trapani sea salt (diluted), as well as larger berries, aromatic dried herbs and salt, all starting at $4.50. The gift basket, $132.50, comes with a ceramic caper-keeper box shaped like an island dammuso’s house.

A new take on Pastiera di Grano, a Neapolitan Easter specialty that legend says was created by a monk, can grace your holiday table this year. Kara Blitz, the new pastry chef at Lincoln Ristorante in Lincoln Center, makes a lovely, more delicate version, featuring thin wheat berries in an orange-scented custard filling made with buffalo ricotta, mascarpone and orange confit. Traditionally the monk wanted to capture the orange scent from the nunnery’s garden on his terrace. Mrs. Blitz bakes his in a rectangle with a lattice top, enough to serve eight to 10 people. Available, pre-ordered online, for pickup this Easter Sunday at the restaurant, $42.

Three cheers for Front Burner

This column started in 1983 as Food Notes, when the Food section was called The Living Section, changed to Food Stuff and finally stayed on the Front Burner 10 years ago. It has been dedicated to stories about food, culinary events, products, new wines and spirits, cookbooks and markets. After this week you’ll still be able to find me writing Off the Menu, my restaurant news column that expands its scope and, occasionally, will provide some Front Burner muscle. Pay attention to the Food section of The Times online and in print.
