BOOST FLAVOR WITH COMMON INGREDIENTS

JUST TWO INGREDIENTS CAN CREATE A SIGNATURE SAUCE YOUR CUSTOMERS WILL LOVE

Foodservice operators are finding new ways to simplify their menus without compromising quality and flavor. The tough labor market and food ingredient costs mean many are finding new ways to get more from common pantry ingredients with simple, two to four-ingredient recipes for custom sauces.

The Benefits of Simplified Flavors:

• Made in 10 minutes or less

• 5 ingredients or less

• Multi-Functional: Dips, Wings, Salad Dressings, Marinades and more!
