editorial

he holiday season has arrived in Oakwood Georgia. We donâ€™t necessarily have a drastic change in seasons, but we do see enough change in weather patterns to make it feel a bit like winter. I, for one, welcome the cooler temperatures and the chance to hibernate a little more than usual. I also like any reason to add an element of cheer, which I think we need this season more than ever. Growing up in the south most of my favorite memories are spending time with my family, cooking in the kitchen, creating and learning family traditions, and gorging ourselves until we felt like we would pop. While the holidays are about creating memories, they can also be about new beginnings. This year certainly is one to go down in history. Our industry was hit in a way that would have broken any other. We stood together, we became innovative and rebounded. To me that is what hospitality is at its core. We cared for those that were broken. We showed that food equals love and can bring us together as one. As we enter into our next phase, the Holiday Season, my wish is for you to be able to continue to show how resilient this industry is. We thank you for your partnership and look forward to what next year brings. From our family to yours, Happy Holidays and Feliz Navidad!

MEGHAN PADGETT Exclusive Brands Manager

Happy Holidays!

A warm holiday welcome from Performance Foodservice - Atlanta’s President Mike Morell As we approach the holidays it’s hard to gauge how and what to expect in our industry. The average American families spending habits are significantly different. They’re more prudent with their dollar, more likely to seek top value, and most importantly, less likely to tolerate inconsistencies. During Covid 19 Americans have adopted frugality and reconnecting to traditional values. With an eroded sense of trust in institutions, values like community and quality have replaced mindless consumption. In the foodservice industry, this means your customer is more conscious of their spending and less tolerant when their order is sub-par. So how can we help you deliver consistency in this critical time and maintain the importance of foodservice? Performance Foodservice Atlanta has committed to focus on bringing quality to our operators day in and day out. Due to this commitment, Performance Foodservice Exclusive Brands have partnered with the industry’s best to ensure we are able to offer quality, consistency, savings, and variety. This allows us to have an open and honest conversation about food sourcing, ingredients, nutrition facts, allergens and environmental impact. By using our exclusive brand of products you are able to customize and go beyond your everyday product and ingredient needs to stand out. I invite you and encourage you to take a deeper look into our family of brands. I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised at what you find.

Home for the Holidays Fun Ways to get Kids in the Kitchen

TONY SCHMIDT - DIRECTOR OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT & EXECUTIVE CHEF

There is nothing I enjoy better than the holidays and creating family traditions. For several years, my family has created a couple new and fun traditions. My 9 year old daughter Harper loves both of these as she gets to have fun and get in the kitchen with me. For our Thanksgiving, we make Gyoza with dipping sauce and for Christmas, we make meatballs and Sunday Gravy (Red Sauce). This has her excited all year and has introduced her to flavors that I never thought she would try. In this edition, you will find the recipes needed to have some fun in the kitchen with the family! These would also make great kits for you to sell to your customers for some holiday break fun. 10

a hog above the rest! BRYAN CORSINI - BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER – Italian & center of the plate

This tradition isn’t just found on the tables inside homes - many restaurants in the south serve their take on a traditional southern New Year’s Day dinner. So, what’s on your plate for 2020? Begin the New Year with Allegiance Pork! Allegiance® is the highest-level pork on the market. Coupled with our PathProven® program, we ensure the highest quality, great marbling, fork-tender, delicious taste that you and ALL YOUR CUSTOMERS deserve.

With the high standards we enforce, our pork is unmatchable. Taste the rich, juicy flavor for yourself. THE BEST HOGS Allegiance comes from the top 20 percent of hogs available in the United States. The hogs raised for Allegiance are bred from Duroc males, which are known for exceptional pork quality, outstanding growth, impressive muscle and unmatched tenderness, and Yorkshire/ Laundrace females, which are known for large litters, excellent temperament and very good growth. The hogs are born on a single-source Midwest family farm with 24 locations, so every carcass is traceable from start to finish. SUPERIOR MARBLING, FLAVOR, TENDERNESS Allegiance hogs are fed on a local-farmergrown corn diet, which contributes to the beautiful marbling that produces superior flavor, juiciness and tenderness.

TO BRAISE OR NOT TO BRAISE?

BRYAN CORSINI - BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER – Italian & center of the plate

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BRAISING AND STEWING?

Both techniques are very similar cooking methods, but the primary difference between a braise and a stew is whether the protein is completely submerged in liquid. Braising usually uses whole, larger cuts of meat and the least amount of added liquid, while stews require food to be cut into uniform pieces and completely submerged in liquid. Sometimes these terms can be used interchangeably in the kitchen, but it’s helpful to know the technicalities. If you’re making a larger pot roast, short ribs, or even a big batch of root vegetables, a braise may be the way to go. But when what you’re cooking features a rich broth or gravy that’s just as important as the main ingredient, you should use stewing as a technique. Good food doesn’t always take time, but that longcooking pot in the oven can be well worth it for the flavor dividends you’ll reap. Turn to our recipes for stews and braises—like chicken cacciatore, braised lamb shoulder, and osso buco—when you want a super-satisfying, deeply flavorful, stick-to-your-ribs kind of meal. 16

BRAISING

A combination-cooking method that uses both wet and dry heats: typically, the food is first sautéed or seared at a high temperature, then finished in a covered pot at a lower temperature while sitting in some amount of liquid. Braising of meat is often referred to as pot roasting, though some authors make a distinction between the two methods, based on whether additional liquid is added. How to Take a Tough Cut of Meat and Make It Tender: Braising means cooking something in a small amount of liquid. Usually braising involves large cuts of meat, but chicken legs, lamb shanks, and oxtails are also braise-able. Basically, anything that will benefit from long, slow cooking can benefit from braising. And if you have the option of getting bone-in meat, you should: It will impart better flavor to the braising liquid and sauce. When it comes to short ribs, the browner the better. The first step to a successful braise is to brown the meat.

STEWING

A close relative to braising, making a phenomenal stew is effortless, economical, and versatile. This low and slow cooking method is the key to elegant and nutritious recipes from all over the world; let’s find out what makes a good stew. The ultimate one-pot meal made for thousands of years, a stew is, quite literally, what you put in it. There’s no better way to render tough, close to the shank cuts of meat tender and delicious than cooking them with a melée of vegetables, aromatics, and broth over the course of an afternoon. Beans, vegetables, and seafood can all benefit from this technique. A good stew makes the chef a hero, because every bite is better than the next. OPERATOR BENEFITS AT THE HOLIDAYS Now that we know what these methods are and how they are executed, the question is WHY would an operator benefit from these types of foods and preparation techniques at the holidays?

1. Cheaper cuts of meat can be used to increase profit margin and return to the operator 2. Great results can be achieved with a more limited skill set from the labor pool 3. You can create a variety of meal presentations and uses that can be executed for one preparation 4. The finished product can be served through out the time of service with little effort, labor or time in plating and delivery.

THE PERFORMANCE COOKBOOK shanks; add more oil to Dutch oven at any point if it becomes too dry. 2. Add butter to Dutch oven, along with onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring, over medium-high heat until vegetables are softened and just starting to turn a light golden color, about 6 minutes.

Veal Osso Bucco

INGREDIENTS 6 – 1 to 1 ½ in thick pieces of osso buco/veal shanks Kosher Salt Fresh Ground Pepper 1.5 cups all-purpose flour ½ cup extra virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 yellow onion, chopped 2 carrots, chopped 1 celery rib, chopped 1.5 cups dry white wine 1 cup chicken stock 2 pounds peeled whole tomatoes, seeded, drained and crushed by hand 3 fresh sprigs of Thyme 1 bay leaf Gremolada 2 tablespoons chopped parsley Zest of 1 lemon 6 cloves of garlic, chopped 1. Add flour to a shallow bowl. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, lightly dredge shanks all over in flour, shaking off excess, and add to Dutch oven; be careful not to over-crown the shanks. Cook shanks, turning occasionally, until lightly browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side; lower heat as necessary at any point to prevent scorching. Transfer browned shanks to a platter and repeat with remaining

3. Add wine, stock, and tomatoes to Dutch oven, along with veal shanks and any accumulated juices. Try to arrange the shanks in as even a layer as possible (a little overlap is okay to make them fit). The liquid should nearly but not totally cover the shanks; if it doesn’t, add more stock or water until it does. Add thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer. 4. Prepare a parchment paper lid following these instructions. Cover shanks with parchment lid and transfer to oven. Cook for 2 hours. Gremolada 1. In a small bowl, stir together parsley, lemon zest, and garlic. Set aside. 2. Remove parchment paper lid from shanks and continue cooking until they are fork-tender, about 1 hour longer. If the pot becomes too dry, add more stock or water as needed to keep it moist; evaporation and reduction are good, but the pot shouldn’t go dry. Feel free to move the shanks around so that any that are submerged can be exposed to the oven air. During the last 20 minutes of cooking, stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons gremolada, depending on how strong you want the lemon and garlic flavor to be. 3. Carefully transfer shanks to a platter. (Using a spatula and tongs together can help prevent them from falling apart.) Using a spoon, carefully scrape off any excess fat on surface of braising juices. The liquid should be saucy and thick; you can adjust

the consistency by adding either water or stock to thin the sauce, or simmering it on the stovetop until more fully reduced. Discard thyme and bay leaf and season with salt and pepper if necessary. 4. Remove twine from shanks, if used. Serve shanks on plates, spooning braising sauce on top and passing remaining gremolada at the table for diners to sprinkle as a garnish to their own taste; make sure to offer small spoons for scooping out marrow from bones

Pour off excess fat from the Dutch oven and place over medium heat. Add the strained aromatics to the pan, season with Kosher salt and cook until softened about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring about 2 minutes. Add the reserved wine, bring to a boil and reduce by half, about 30 minutes. Add the chicken stock and short ribs, cover and place in the oven for 2-3 hours or until the meat is very tender. Remove from the oven, separate the meat from the bones, discarding the bones.

Squash

WINTER

KEVIN DELEVAN - Category Manager – Produce

Winter has plenty going on for sure, but fresh produce isn’t at the top of the list. We are here with good news, not every meal needs to revolve around potatoes and onions. With a little planning and creativity, it’s possible to get your fix of fresh produce all winter long. From acorn to turban, winter squash are some of the most delicious and versatile ingredients of the season. Unlike summer squash, these are harvested in autumn when they are hard and ripe, and most varieties can be stored and enjoyed for use through the winter.

ACORN SQUASH also called Pepper Squash has distinctive ridges on the exterior and sweet, yellow to orange flesh. Usually baked with brown sugar and then cut into wedges, or halved, or scoop out the flesh and discard the shell.

BUTTERCUP SQUASH small, dark green with a bulbous top and sweet orange flesh. Seeds can be eaten as a snack food, much like pumpkin seeds. Baked, steamed, simmered, or stewed are the usual cook methods. Goes well with beef, lentils, nuts, and /or hard cheeses.

SWEET DUMPLING SQUASH usually the size of a large apple and at about 1lb apiece, this squash is shaped like a miniature pumpkin with the lobes on the rind. Usually light yellow- white exterior with mottled yellow, green, and / or orange markings. Flesh is a bright orange color, tender, and sweet.

RED KURI SQUASH a tear shaped squash with distinctive orange exterior and creamy yellow flesh and a flavor that resembles cooked chestnuts. The skin is thin and hard, but edible after being cooked. Roasted or made into soup are the basic cooking philosophies.

kobocha coarse exterior with deep green color and a tender reddish-yellow interior flesh. The flesh is high in antioxidant beta- carotene, otherwise known as Vitamin A. Baked, Slow Cooker, or Pressure Cooker are typical cooking methods.

hubbard squash originated in South America over 4000 years ago and is a term that describes a group of squashes. The squash itself has a hard- bumpy skin that ranges from grey- blue to grey to orange, to dark or light green in color. The interior is sweet, but somewhat grainy and is easy to cut. Baked, boiled, mashed, or pureed are typical cooking methods.

delicata squash cream colored cylinder style squash with green and yellow stripes and with a soft rind (therefore the name Delicato or Delicate). Also known as Bohemian Squash, Peanut Squash, or Sweet Potato Squash. The most common form of cooking is roasting.

butternut SQUASH

sweet, nutty taste that resembels a pumpkinâ€™s flavor. It has a tan- yellow skin with an orange fleshy pulp along with a compartment of seeds in the blossom end. Roasted, caramelized, baked, or for soup are the usual cooking techniques.

THE PERFORMANCE COOKBOOK SWEET POTATOES Another holiday staple is the sweet potato. It is both healthy and a natural star in such feel-good recipes. While sweet potatoes are available year-round, they grow best in the warmer months, meaning fall and winter are great seasons to harvest them, according to Utah State University. Sweet potatoes originated in Central and South America. But archaeologists have found prehistoric remnants of sweet potato in Polynesia from about A.D. 1000 to A.D. 1100, according to radiocarbon dating. They’ve hypothesized that those ancient samples came from the western coast of South America.

Butternut Squash Soup INGREDIENTS 2 ½ cups vegetable stock 5 cloves garlic, chopped 2 carrots, peeled and chopped 2 granny smith apples, cored and chopped 4 ½ pounds butternut squash, diced 1 white onion, diced 2 sprigs fresh sage 1 teaspoon Kosher salt ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 cup Asian Pride coconut milk 1. Add vegetable stock, garlic, carrot, apple, butternut squash, sage, onion, salt, pepper and cinnamon to a dutch oven. Slowly simmer until the squash can easily be mashed with a fork. Remove and discard the sage. Add coconut milk. 2. Use an immersion blender or add to a blender to puree the soup until smooth. Serve with choice of garnish or toppings.

who discovered the sweet potato? Scientists believe that sweet potato was domesticated thousands of years ago in Central America. After his first voyage to the Americas in 1492, Christopher Columbus took sweet potatoes back home to Europe.

why are sweet potatoes called sweet potatoes? The reason for the name mix-up is because Louisiana sweet potato growers marketed their orange-fleshed as “yams” to distinguish from other states’ produce in the 1930s—and it stuck. The skin of a yam looks kind of like tree bark, while a sweet potato is more reddishbrown.

sweet potatoes vs yams Yams have some distinct characteristics that help distinguish them from sweet potatoes, mainly their size and skin. The flesh color varies from white or yellow to purple or pink in mature yams. Yams have a unique taste, too. Compared to sweet potatoes, yams are less sweet and much starchier and drier.

A HO FISH S JEFF MEAGHER - BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER – SEAFOOD & CENTER OF THE PLATE

How about The Feast of the Seven Fishes—also known as Festa dei Sette Pesci or La Vigilia— a huge dinner that features seven courses of fish and seafood dishes, plus a classic Italian dessert. Add some festive decor and good music and you’ll have an unforgettable evening! Every year on Christmas Eve, people celebrate the Feast of the Seven Fishes. The Italian tradition involves family gathering for a feast of seven seafood dishes, or a few different kinds of fish prepared, you guessed it, in seven different ways. Italian-American families began preparing the seven-course meal way 24

back in the early 1900s, as a way to feel close to home while celebrating the sea. Such a feast calls for plenty of options, and we’ve got all kinds of seafood recipes that will please your guests.

Feliz Navidad

WILLIAM MOISES - BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER – HISPANIC

hen we think of the holidays what usually comes to mind is casseroles, turkey and/or ham, gravies, and mashed potatoes. In an American-Hispanic family the list of food goes on and on. Hispanics all over America incorporate traditional dishes from their native countries into the holidays. With bold, authentic flavors and recipes that have been in the family for generations, these are items you are sure to not want to miss. Cubans like to serve Maduros or Plantains: brown the plantains in oil for approximately 2 minutes or until all sides are brown. Drain excess oil and serve hot. The traditional way is to serve them plain, but you can also sprinkle them with a little bit of salt for the salty sweet taste. Argentinians like to serve “Milanesa” – a simple array of breaded meats which can range from pork, to chicken, to steak. Puerto Ricans like to serve Mofongo. Mofongo is one of the Puerto Rican delights made with fried mashed green (not ripe) plantains, mashed 28

garlic and small pieces of crunchy chicharrón. It is mashed to get a consistency that is neither too soft nor too hard so that it can form a half-sphere or molded into the shape of a bowl to stuff it with pork meat, seafood or chicken chicharrón. Dominicans have their own way of indulging for the holidays. Bizcoho is a dessert cake that is served throughout the year but is made more popular during the holidays by adding rum. It is very airy and moist. It contains a large amount of butter, about a third of it in fact, and a large volume of air, producing a cake that virtually dissolves in your mouth. The icing, which we call “suspiro” is actually meringue. The traditional filling is made from pineapple, which gives it the faintest of tartness. Venezuelans serve Ensalada de Gallina. Translated into chicken salad, packed with flavor and ingredients like potatoes, mayo, carrots, and chicken, this salad is sure to be a hit. Colombians take traditional white rice to another

level with their arroz con coco. This dish is made by soaking rice in coconut milk and then adding raisins to finish. The sweetness of the rice pairs perfectly with cranberry sauce and some turkey. Mexican food comes from a diverse blend of cultures. It is highly influenced by European cooking. So, it’s no surprise that food is at the center of the holiday season in Mexico. While what is considered “tradition” varies by region, culture, and family, the festivities kick off on Dec. 16th, with the start of Las Posadas, which commemorates the journey of Mary and Joseph from Nazareth to Bethlehem. Buena Noche, or Christmas Eve, is the final day of Las Posadas, and is often a bigger celebration than Christmas Day for many Mexican families. A traditional family dinner is enjoyed late on Christmas Eve, and the leftovers are saved for Christmas Day. Holiday celebrations are not complete without tamales! Although they can be enjoyed year-round, they’re rather labor-intensive and time-consuming, making them an extra special treat for the holidays. There are a wide variety of fillings to choose from whether it’s pork, beef, cheese, or chicken. The holidays are where everyone comes together to celebrate life’s greatest blessings, however, that doesn’t mean everyone celebrates it the same. With the melting pot that America is, there’s an array of cultures that bring each of their own distinct dishes to the table. From fried plantains to chicken salad, there’s always something new to try this holiday season. Happy eating.

“Las Posadas” are traditionally celebrated as a Christmas novena which recalls the plight of Joseph and Mary when they were unable to find lodging in Bethlehem as the birth of Jesus was at hand. “Las Posadas” signifies lodging and it was because of the decree by the Roman emperor Caesar Augusts that the Holy couple had traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem In 1578 an Augustinian missionary, Friar Diego de Soria, introduced this novena in the church of Acolman in Mexico. He did this to combat the Aztec custom of honoring their war god Huitzilopochtli, during the time of the year that corresponded with the Christmas season. His intention was to establish a Christian devotion which would honor the Holy Child and at the same time replace the pagan rite. This ingenious friar could not have imagined at the time that his dedicated efforts would bear fruit and expand greatly over time. Today, over four hundred years later, “Las Posadas” are not only an established religious and cultural tradition in Mexico but in many other countries.

THE HISTORY OF “LAS POSADAS”

As this celebration of “Las Posadas” has expanded, it has produced a marked fervor and enthusiasm in the participants. There is no doubt that the good Friar Diego has given the Spanish speaking world an instrument for prayer which has served well to fill the spiritual emptiness which is evident during this time of Advent. How do “Las Posadas” fit into this current world or ours? Today’s commercialism has become a fitting substitute for the pagan rites for Huitzilopochtli. It is only by simple faith, which is honest and firm, in the humble that still believe and remember Jesus at the time when he was a weak and indefensible baby that the Holy Spirit elevates to the sublime heights attained by “Las Posadas”. Let us pray that this celebration of love ignites the hearts of the participants with love for the Baby Jesus of Bethlehem.

Las Posadas around the World For Most Hispanics, the posadas tradition begins on December 15 with a Misa de Gallo (midnight mass) every night for nine consecutive nights prior to Christmas Eve. Similarly, Puerto Rican Christmas celebrations usually begin December 10 - and last until the Epiphany (Día de los Reyes Magos) on January 6 - with impromptu Parranda (parties) hosted at different locations each night for generous helpings of Christmas coquito (a delicious variation of egg nog) and festive platters of pasteles (savory meat pastries). In Nicaragua, La Gritería (The Shoutings), occurs on December 7 when friends and family parade in the streets to sing in praise of the Virgin Mary before visiting neighbors to share festive food, drink and gift exchanges.

BUÑUELO 1. Combine 3/4 cup water, 3/4 cup juice, 1 egg, 3 tablespoons sugar, 3 tablespoons lard, 1 tablespoon rum, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in large bowl; whisk to blend well.

NEW YEAR, NEW CULINARY IDEAS GREENS Any variety here is acceptable, but most common is collard, turnip or mustard greens. The greens symbolize wealth, but some households stew the greens with tomatoes, symbolizing wealth and health. PEAS Symbolizing coins, representing luck and promising prosperity, peas are used to make a dish seasoned with pork, ham, or sausage. Typically, black-eyed peas are used but lentils or beans can be substituted. CORNBREAD Representing gold, eating cornbread brings with it the hope of extra spending money in the new year. Pork - Another symbol of prosperity, eating pork is a tradition many cultures around the world believe.
