CHARRED ONION KETCHUP
Northwoods Gourmet Girl
Greenville, Maine
At the southern end of Moose-head Lake, Abby Freethy has been making pantry staples one jar at a time since 2005. Her charred-onion ketchup (just one of her 23 products) shines with the flavor of bright, fresh, sweet tomatoes; smoky onions; and a rich texture you won’t find on your average supermarket shelf.
Suggested Retail Price: $7.50 per 14-ounce bottle
Where to Find It: Specialty shops, including Breton’s in Greenville, ME; Leroux Kitchen in Portland, ME; Joppa Fine Foods in Newburyport, MA; and online at: northwoodsgourmetgirl.com
