Every time Trader Joe’s comes out with new products it feels like Christmas all over again. And checking out the list of new items is always fun. What new and clever items are they going to come up with next? How can I cook with this at home? When can I buy my favorites to do a taste test?
Well the retailer’s latest batch of newbies doesn’t disappoint. And from the new list, it seems that there are a couple of cuisines and culinary themes that TJs is leaning into. They’re expanding their Asian grocery offerings with White Miso Paste, Frozen Stir Fried Garlicky Cabbage, and Sliced Korean Rice Cakes. They’re also stocking the shelves with more pasta fixings (and a pasta substitute), like 4 Cheese Ravioli, Organic Roasted Red Pepper and Almond Pesto Sauce, and Organic Spaghetti Squash Nests. All in all, there’s a lot to look forward to—and even more reason to head to your local TJ’s ASAP.
White Miso Paste, $3
Personally, I’ve been hoping for this one—it definitely saves me a trip to another grocery store. And it’s legit, too, the retailer’s supplier is a 5th generation miso maker in Japan. Use it for marinades, dips, sauces, soups, dressings, and even baking.
Stir Fried Garlicky Cabbage, $3
The newest addition to TJ’s frozen lineup is a cabbage dish packed with garlic and vegan stir-fry sauce that is reminiscent of fish sauce—the item is inspired by the Thai dish, Galam Lee Pad Nam Pla.
Seasoned Corn Ribs, $4
Now it’s even easier to eat corn on the cob—Trader Joe’s brought corn ribs to the freezer. They’re vegan with plant-based butter. And if you try them and want to make your own, try our recipe for deep-fried ribs.
4 Cheese Ravioli, $3
Cheese ravioli can seem pretty boring, but the retailer’s new 4 Cheese Ravioli is far from that. Add your favorite TJ’s sauce and you’re all set.

If you’re trying to cut back on caffeine, this will literally be your cup of tea. It’s a blend of fine, African black teas.
Italian Tomato & Red Onion Focaccia, $4
This frozen focaccia actually comes from Italy—the Bologna region to be exact. It cooks in just 10 to 12 minutes.

You might recognize this ginger beer—it’s the same one that they’ve been selling in bottles for years, just in a can format.
