Good food is something we all know and love. But it goes beyond our tastebuds -- food that is responsibly produced, sustainable, and environmentally-friendly makes our dishes better than any seasoning could on its own. The people of Good Food Awards stand behind this principle, and every year, they set out to highlight the best in American producers that stand behind it, too. 

Last weekend, all over the country, 30 groups of FOOD52ers gathered together to make mozzarella from scratch at our very first Make Mozzarella Potluck – and we couldn’t be more grateful. 

Are you going to a #makemozzarella potluck this weekend? (Are you hosting one?) If not, remember that the California Olive Ranch Tasting Set is 36% off in the FOOD52 Shop and that we're pleased to announce an Olive Oil Tasting Kit Giveaway!

Last October, the FOOD52 community came together to celebrate the release of our cookbook -- and the subsequent potlucks were quite the festive events. We love it when our digital community gets together in the real world, and we want to do it all over again: we're thrilled to announce our Make Mozzarella Potlucks, sponsored by California Olive Ranch and scheduled for the weekend of April 20, 2012.
