Pizza Recipe, EXAU Olive Oil Club is back, & 15% off orders $75+
Let's Check-In
Hey there! It's Skyler and Giuseppe. How are you doing? We hope you and yours are doing well and enjoying this lovely Sunday (or is it Tuesday again?) making a mess in the kitchen, watching a great TV show, or just hangin'. Our 'Sunday' looks a lot like this right now:
Wake up (what time/day is it?).
Make coffee.
Feed starter (fingers crossed this works because yeast is more precious than gold).
Skip breakfast and figure out what to cook for lunch, leftovers (side note: chicken carcass + veggies = stock for stew + beans + risotto + ragù) *pats self on back for being culinary genius*.
Checks social media and falls over laughing because you guys are so funny.
Makes menu for the next week then ignores it because we're just going to make Carbonara, Amatriciana, Pizza, or Ragù for the 34785237x.
Eat lunch.
Giuseppe talks (loudly) to family in Italy (everyone is fine!).
Skyler speaks soothing words to *still-unnamed* starter then responds to emails.
Is it dinner time? Probably just 2nd lunch.
Dreams of the day we can 'frolic' in olive groves again.
Texts/calls friends to see how everyone's doing.
It's actually dinner time and still don't know what we're making: 50% chance it's Amatriciana.
Realize this is the first day we've 'taken off' in a few weeks and feel grateful.
Tomorrow is finally Wednesday and we'll get back to work.
What's your Sunday routine looking like?

Pizza Recipe is Here!
Giuseppe has a habit of writing down different versions of recipes on bits of paper and hiding them (from Skyler). Shelter in place has provided the perfect opportunity to compile said recipes and put them in digital format. Giuseppe has been 'testing' and adjusting this recipe over the past 4 years. You know that soft, perfectly chewy dough that you can only seem to find in Naples (or your imagination), this is it. The key to awesome pizza dough is patience, the dough has to rise slow and steady. So here's Giuseppe's Pizza Margherita Recipe. Remember, more toppings = longer cook time and for Pizza Napoletana, we want a short cook time. Let us know how it turns out and remember practice makes perfect! Tag us w/ #exauoliveoil so we can see what you're making.

(Virtual) Events
Tomorrow, April 6, is International Carbonara Day (one of the happiest days of the year). In celebration, we are going live on Instagram at 12:30pm PT (3:30pm ET) with Proclamation Goods! Giuseppe will be teaching us how to make a delicious and simple Carbonara.
On April 11 and 12 we will be joining Boss Babes ATX in a digital market. Details will be shared via social media! Keep an eye out for more virtual events in the future.
We will not be participating in any in-person events until at least June.
Have any Questions about Beans?
We took a poll on social media and a lot of people had questions about beans (compiling all those q's). We will be frank and say this is not our area of expertise. However, we have several close friends that are quite the experts on the subject! If you have any questions on legumes or beans feel free to respond to this email. We are currently putting together a post on the subject. Know someone that is super into beans or wants to learn more about them? Please forward this email to them!
