Collection: Oils & Dressings

Autumn in the Okanagan is scented with orchard apples, and our farm is abundant with organic salad greens. Balancing tangy apple cider vinegar with the classic flavours of Caesar was therefore naturally inspired. Savour this delicious vegan dressing over a bed of crisp romaine or spinach, topped with a crouton crunch and fresh parmesan. We love Okanagan Caesar as a dip, spread or mouth watering mayonnaise. Let your imagination take over...

About Little Creek

In 1995, Donna Denison bottled the first batch of Little Creek Dressing on her family farm – Little Creek Gardens. More than two decades later, the dressing is still made with care in small batches.
​
The Little Creek property has been in the Denison family since 1947. Donna, her husband Dale, and son Jubi moved to the land in 1984 to farm organic vegetables. Ten years later, looking for a way to work from home while she raised her twin daughters, Donna decided to try bottling the salad dressing she had always served with the organic greens from the farm.
Donna developed each dressing recipe using high-quality, organic ingredients paired with handcrafted vinegars to create unique, artisan flavours. As well, all the dressings are vegan, GMO-free, and produced using renewably-sourced energy.

At first, Donna made the famous Okanagan’s Original Vinaigrette using raspberries, basil, and garlic that grew on the farm. When production got too big, Little Creek bought ingredients from other farmers. The business kept growing, and in 2014, production moved off the farm and into the Little Creek facility in Kelowna. In 2016, Jubi became the company’s Executive Director, continuing the family legacy.
​
Today, Little Creek Dressing is made in small, well-tended batches, and the company remains true to its founding values: creating wholesome, flavourful foods that support healthy eating, healthy living, and a healthy planet.

This sumptuous, robust vinaigrette is the third dressing created at our Little Creek kitchen, and unites our Okanagan garden with the sunny hills of Italy. The sweetness of dark, juicy cherries lingering in the velvety smooth flavour of balsamic vinegar will tantalize, and enrich any cuisine. Delite your palate with this luscious fusion of Earth's abundance. Used as a dressing, dip or marinade, your senses will be captivated by the union of two worlds.

In 1995 I created this artisan dressing to compliment our farm's organic greens. It has always been a favourite of our family and friends, and it is my pleasure to share it with you. We love it on salads, hot or cold pastas, rice and vegetables. It's also delicious as a dip or marinade.

About Islanders Authentic Mexican Salsa

I am Lily Rechon-Reguet, I am a Canadian citizen with a Mexican background. I moved from Mexico to Vancouver in 2006 at 24 years old. In Vancouver, I studied as a Web Designer and System Developer at BCIT and worked in the food industry. Married to a lovely French guy Thierry, I had the opportunity to live and work in the food industry in France for three years, where I learned new food processing techniques.

About the Dyana's Aji

We are a family from Colombia and we immigrated to Canada back in October of 1999. As it is our culture, Dyana (mom) continued to make the traditional condiment called Aji for our family to put on all of our food. Aji is the Spanish word for "pepper" and the name of the typical mixture of tomatoes, onions and cilantro. Dyana did this to keep a little slice of home in the fridge. When the kids began playing sports (hockey and soccer), Dyana and Carlos (dad) were invited to a potluck dinner, and being South American, were asked to bring the guacamole. Dyana had never made guacamole as it is not a big part of Colombian culture but she knew she could figure something out. In the last minute, Dyana decided to just mash the avocado and add the Aji we had in the fridge. Well the guacamole was a HUGE hit! People were even using their fingers to get the last bits in the bowl, and went on to tell Dyana that she should make it and sell it. Dyana didn't think much of it.

The family then moved to the Lower Mainland. During a chance encounter, Dyana connected with a representative that specialized in specialty foods and shortly after the representative tried Dyana's Aji, Dyana received a call from a distributor stating that if she made it, he would sell it.

Dyana did her homework and got everything set up and the calls from stores wanting to carry the product started! The company quickly set up an assembly line with Allison (daughter) filling the jars and weighing them, Carlos putting on the lids, Dyana, Nicholas (son) and Augusto (grandpa) putting on shrink wraps and stickers. From those humble beginnings, Dyana's Aji has expanded and now sells in most major retail chains. Dyana's Aji continues to grow but is still a family business with  Dyana (CEO), Carlos (CFO) and Nicholas (COO) working full time and daughter, Allison, playing a very important role in large business decisions as well as marketing and advertising.

The middle ground between an introvert and extrovert. The medium sauce can dance with any meal, but may be a bit too sassy for those who are very sensitive (to spice). A tangy flavour with a medium zing! This will become your favourite go-to sauce once you build up your spice tolerance a little bit, by bringing out the flavours of your dishes and will make your taste buds sing. Use and explore in your cooking as an ingredient, as a marinade, or to simply use at the table!

Uses: The possibilities are limitless! Play with it as a hot sauce on top of any meat, vegetarian, or vegan dish. Amazing with any rice or pasta bowls as well. You can also use it as a marinade for chicken wings and ribs. Mix Aji with other ingredients to create delicious dips and sauces such as your new signature white sauce or tartar sauce!

Mix 50/50 with mayo/yogurt/sour cream/vegannaise—it’s the perfect vegetable and pizza dip. Use to marinade your fish, put on your potatoes and in a sandwich!

Made in a facility that also handles nuts, peanuts, soy, eggs, gluten & other allergens.

Ingredients

White Vinegar, Diced Tomatoes, Water, Onions, Lemon Juice, Sea Salt, Corn Starch, Cilantro, Crushed Chili, Cayenne Pepper, Chives, Yeast Extract.

The mild sauce may seem like an introvert, but once you get to know it, it comes out of its shell to mingle with all your meals! Even so, it’s very reserved in terms of spice. A tangy flavour with a mild zing! This will become your new favourite go-to sauce by bringing out the flavours of your dishes and will make your taste buds sing. No need to add salt & pepper. Use and explore in your cooking as an ingredient, as a marinade, or to simply use at the table!

Uses: The opportunities are endless! Feel free to experiment as a marinade but it’s best used as a sauce on top of any meat, vegetarian, or vegan dish. You can also mix it with other ingredients to create delicious dips and sauces such as your new signature guacamole or aioli/tartar sauce!

Mix 50/50 with mayo/yogurt/sour cream or vegannaise—It’s the perfect vegetable and pizza dip. Use to marinade your fish, put on your potatoes and in a sandwich!
