The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s forthcoming segments:

J Daniel Gourmet Food

The Connoisseur’s Corner team is always on the hunt for great new tastes. So how cool is it to find a food purveyor who shares the same adventuresome spirit!

J Daniel (aka “The Secret Recipe Hunter”) is a restaurateur-turned-entrepreneur who has always been driven by a desire to help people and to make them happy. Having been raised in a family where the family meal was one of the most important venues for love and support, he has traveled the globe seeking out traditional recipes like those his partner Patty Putenesca’s Italian Nonna used to make and then figuring out ways to capture them like a hunter captures his prey. He is so into the role that he dresses in a safari outfit when he presents his amazing sauces at stores all over New England!

From a simmering-all-day-authentic tomato sauce that is made with the rarest and most authentically Italian tomatoes available –San Marzano certified DOPs – to a Memphis-worthy BBQ sauce and a “Cluck n’ Awesome” wing sauce that works well on everything from eggs to fish to serving as a tangy veggie dip for kids, J Daniel has the stuff to make your great foods even better. Each of the expanding line is available on its own or in gift baskets and they do make great gifts.

So look for the guy in the safari getup and discover something delicious at jdanielgourmetfood.com.
