Gelato: Italian ice cream
Our newest store — PCC Edmonds — is dishing up the creamiest treat around. Locally made gelato from Procopio in Pike Place Market is giving everyone a reason to indulge a little. It's made fresh from scratch, using locally grown ingredients when available, and is free of artificial ingredients and colors.
Gelato differs from American ice cream in several ways. It contains more milk than cream so it has a very low fat content. Also it is churned at a slower speed, which means it contains less air. This denser consistency leads to a much richer, creamier flavor.
We currently have 12 different flavors in our Edmonds deli, scooped to order. Stop by and try chocolate, chocolate mint, cinnamon, ginger, green tea, lemon cream, mango, mocha, pistachio, pumpkin, raspberry or vanilla.
[ Deli Fresh ]
The days are shorter, mornings are crisper, and fall is in the air. That can only mean it's time to warm your belly with a hot bowl of tasty soup from your local PCC Deli. Our soups are made fresh in our kitchens by talented cooks, using only organic produce, beans, and grains, and natural meats. We start with chicken or vegetable stock made from scratch and slowly simmer in flavor.
Whether you like to stop in and have a hot cup of soup in the store, or you prefer to bring a quart home to heat and feed the family, our naturally made soup will surely warm your insides.
Cooking with the seasons
As the seasons change, we'll have to say goodbye to the tomatoes, cucumbers, basil and mint of summer, and say hello to the squashes, greens, brussel sprouts, and root vegetables of fall. As we move from cooking from our gardens to cooking from our pantries, our cuisine changes. Words like fresh, raw, cold and grilled are replaced by dried, cooked, hot and roasted.
In the PCC Deli, we also rethink our menu as the seasons change. We have enjoyed summer favorites like our Greek Salad with fresh mint and organic tomatoes, Gazpacho, and our Kaleidoscope Salad. Now it's time to move into fall with classics such as Roasted Yams and Kale, Maple Cranberry Wild Rice, and Pumpkin Ravioli.
