Chef’s Choice for British Classics

Posted on 05/10/2011 in News

This month British Food Fortnight celebrates classic British dishes, which interestingly enough is one of 2011's greatest food trends*. As the autumn evenings draw in, the demand for hearty and filling dishes is greater than ever, so if you're not offering a choice of classic 'British Fayre' you may be missing-out!

To help you offer a wide range of delicious British classics, Aviko has created a range of easy to prepare and convenient potato dishes, such as Aviko Supermash and Aviko Roasts which are both endorsed by the Craft Guild of Chefs.

Aviko's Roasts in particular won hands down in a recent blind taste test, with all ten Craft Guild of Chefs members preferring the Aviko potatoes. Chosen on their superior taste, texture and appearance, they were unanimously preferred to the better known brand, making them a must have for the festive season just around the corner!

Of course chips are always a favourite and the Lord brand of chilled chips can cook up to 30% faster than frozen chips on average (based on tests conducted by Aviko on 1Kg of chilled chips vs. 1Kg of frozen fries). This means that the customer can be served quality chips in just a few minutes, making them the chip of choice for busy caterers looking to turn those tables around and impress with speedy service.

So when it comes to putting British favourites on your menu you can rest assured that Aviko has the potatoes covered, which means you'll have more time to concentrate on everything else!
