Hard to find items:  

Guanciale: From Salumi Artisan Meats in Seattle.  Guanciale is traditionally used in dishes like Pasta all'amatriciana and spaghetti alla carbonara. It is a delicacy of Central Italy, particularly Umbria and Lazio.

Fruit Mostarda:   Mostarda is derived from a very old country Christmas recipe. 17th century rural families prepared a special flour, mustard, vinegar, candied fruit and wine must dressing (wine must is how the recipe adopted the name mostarda). Lazzaris Fruit Mostarda is produced using a variety of whole fruits. Dipped in sugar and glucose syrup and pure mustard oil, its characteristic taste allows it to be enjoyed on its own; as an excellent dessert; as well as being a first-class accompaniment to a number of vegetable, grilled meat or game dishes.
