Looking to replace or reduce meat on your menu, but also keep your customers happy? Then look no further.
Jackfruit is quite literally hiding in plain sight, as one of the most underused and misunderstood ingredients currently available in the UK. Everyone has now heard of it, but few people know much about it.
Far from being just another processed plant-based product, jackfruit is one of the planet’s most sustainable whole foods, capable of transforming not only vegan and vegetarian dishes, but also improving the nutrition levels and carbon footprint of meat dishes too – as it has done for thousands of years.
However, not all jackfruit is created equally. Pouched jackfruit has had 90% of the hard work done for you. It’s cut and chopped, had all the hard inner core pieces removed, and is pre-cooked. Simply add stock or your favourite sauce and you’re good to go. It even has 2-3 times more fibre than tinned versions.
Foodservice pouches preserve of all the goodness and meaty texture that you need to create healthy and tasty meals – whether they include meat or not. Once you have pouched jackfruit as your starting point you’re far more likely to achieve the results you’re after.
With more boxes to tick than ever before, pouched jackfruit will help you with:
- Health
- Sustainability
- Nutrition
- Natural, not processed
- Low fat, salt, sugar
If you’d like to learn more about how pouched jackfruit can work for you, how to achieve fantastic results, what makes it so sustainable, and how it has a lower carbon footprint than a lot of fruit and veg grown in the UK (just 90g of CO2 per kg!), then call us anytime to arrange a meeting or demonstration.
