New stockist in Sheffield

Welcome to the latest member of the Get Funghi family, Just Natural in Crookes, Sheffield. It’s got one of the best selections of fresh fruit and veg we’ve ever seen, with a large grocery section. You’ll be able to buy our three varieties of dried wild mushrooms there and Bengt’s Chilli Oil. Talking of Bengt, he’ll be doing a tasting there on Friday 16 February 2024, from 11-2, so come and say hi and get a wild mushroom toastie hot from the oven to try while you mooch.

New stockist in Derbyshire

We’re really happy that we are now stocked in the Buxton Pudding Emporium in – wait for it – Buxton. The shop is in a beautiful old building not far from the Opera House in this historic spa town, and is lovely combination of a small but perfectly formed cafe and a well stocked little deli. The Emporium opened as a showcase for the Original Buxton Pudding along with their other delicious cakes, puddings & sweet treats, and expanded to include a range of products from carefully selected producers both local and further afield.

 

London tastings and new shops

Bengt’s very excited because for the first time ever he’ll be doing a tasting in London, and even more exciting, at our most Scandinavian stockist, Totally Swedish, where the staff are Swedish. Home from home! Naturally the stores stock a fabulous range of Swedish food and drink products,  Swedish design, books and gift items.

You’ll be able to taste delicious samples of our products on Saturday 4 March from 10.00 – 12.30 at the Totally Swedish store on 66 Barnes High Street, and then from 14.00 – 16.30 at their store on 32 Crawford Street. Come and say ‘hej’ to him and all the staff!

We’re also happy to welcome two new stockists in London to the Get Funghi family.

Trude’s Grocery, run and founded by Alex Trude, is based in Clapham. They deliver fresh seasonal produce and store cupboard essentials to Clapham and the surrounding areas and also have a shop at 10 The Pavement, stocked full to the brim of deliciousness.

The Passage Pantry, in Islington, has a huge selection of artisanal products ranging from cupboard essentials, fresh produce and teas & coffees, all the way to herbs & spices, charcuteries and conserves! Their mission above all is to make artisanal goods accessible, affordable and sustainable – while never compromising on quality and taste.

Christmas tastings and markets coming up

The sound of jingle bells is getting ever nearer, and like everyone else we’re starting to think about presents. If you’ve got any foodies in your life and you think they’d like some Get Funghi dried wild mushrooms to experiment with, or a bottle of Bengt’s Chilli Oil, or our Porcini Oil, then come and seek us out at one of the fairs we’ll be attending this month and next.

Coming up first will be a tasting at the well-stocked zero waste shop Millers Refillers in our home town of New Mills, north Derbyshire, this Saturday 12 November from 11-2. If you haven’t visited before there’s a huge range of bulk products to buy (bring your own containers!) as well as some lovely pre-packaged eco goods and tasty goodies. Come and get a wild mushroom toastie while you mooch.

There are two fabulous FAB (Food and Arts at the Basin) markets coming up by the canal in Whaley Bridge. The first one is a twilight market on Saturday 26 November, 11am to 5pm, when it will also be Christmas lights switch on in the town with lots of things going on. For even more of a Christmassy feeling join us there on Saturday 10 December from 10am-4pm, when Santa will be arriving at around 1pm in his water based grotto.

Last but not least we’ll be at the equally fabulous Makers at the Mills, a huge art, craft and food fair at Torr Vale Mill in New Mills, on Saturday 4 December from 10-4. There will be lots of delicious food stalls so come and spend the day there!

Bengt’s Chilli Oil

We’re delighted to add a new product to our range, one which you might be surprised to see there. Why on earth Chilli Oil? It has nothing to do with wild mushrooms! Or Sweden…

The reason is that our passion is, quite simply, for good ingredients with delicious flavours. Bengt’s particular love is for chilli in all it’s forms, and over the years he has made a delicious chilli oil for personal use that family and friends describe as ‘addictive’. So it seemed selfish to not let others try it too!

It’s full of flavour, with a good sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds to give it crunch, and a lovely chilli kick. It makes a great dipping oil with a good bread, is lovely with pasta, perfect for adding to breakfast eggs, on top of curries, you name it. It more or less goes with everything savoury you want a chilli flavour in!

At the moment you can buy it in the North West at Millers’ Refillers in New Mills; Epicerie Ludo in Chorlton; Back’s Deli in Heaton Moor and Dutsons in Marple Bridge, with more stockists to be added as we roll it out.

We hope you enjoy trying it!
