Wasting Food Is Wasting Flavor
Throwing out excess food is wrong for a number of reasons. From a chef's perspective, wasting food means wasting flavor, and that's just a shame, isn't it? But it's also a waste of money and natural resources, not to mention that it's food that other people might as well have enjoyed.
Half a bowl of salad here, a few slices of bread there... Leftovers are hard to avoid, as you know. But a couple of small tricks and new routines can do wonders and have an immediate impact on the amount of food that ends up in the bin every day.
Turn Leftovers Into Tomorrow's Special
Every day, kitchens all over the world throw out food that is packed with flavor. That's a shame, because with a splash of creative thinking, leftovers from today's breakfast, lunch or dinner can become a feast tomorrow.
Our guess is that one of the reasons you became a kitchen professional is that you like to be creative in the kitchen and create new flavors and dishes? Well, the good news is that you’ll have plenty of chances to do exactly that if you stop throwing food away and use it in your kitchen instead. Here is our quick guide on how to challenge yourself as a chef and keep food waste to a minimum.
Spend Less And Get More Flavor
Do you want to reduce food waste and make the most of the ingredients in your kitchen? Well, there is more to it than good management and cooking the right amount of food. In Scandinavia, a canteen that serves around 200 people every day has found that innovative cooking and wasting less food go hand in hand. Leftovers are turned into new dishes, while having Arla slice up the cheese helps saving much money each year. The result? Happier customers and fewer expenses.
All Good Things Come In Slices
Sliced cheese makes good sense for a number of reasons. You avoid a lot of food and time waste.
Usually, slices from Arla come in a 9 times 9 centimeters size. But what about all the people who only eat half a piece of bread? Good news, because now slices of cheese come in 6 times 9 centimeters as well. Of course, we haven’t cut down on the great taste and quality.
