CHELSEA, Mass. (August 10, 2010) – According to a recent Technomic study, more than half of restaurant patrons are more likely to order a variety of soup that cannot be easily made at home. As such, in an effort to help foodservice operators continue to differentiate their soup offerings and appeal to evolving consumer demands, Kettle Cuisine is introducing three on-trend varieties this fall that require more time and culinary acumen to cook than most consumers may have. Spiced Pumpkin Bisque, Spicy Asian Beef Soup, and Tomato & Feta Soup are sure to pique consumer interest and help round out any successful soup rotation.
Below is a brief description of each of these new fully-prepared, ready-to-eat varieties which will be available beginning in September 2010.
- Spiced Pumpkin Bisque – A succulent puree of pumpkin, brown sugar, light cream and savory seasonings make this bisque a can’t-miss comfort food
- Spicy Asian Beef Soup – Naturally raised Angus beef is combined with carrots, red peppers and brown rice in a handcrafted stock infused with lemongrass, anise, annatto and red chilis for a truly authentic Southeast Asian eating experience.
- Tomato & Feta Soup –This Mediterranean-inspired fusion of vine-ripened organic tomatoes and rich feta cheese provides a delightful twist to a classic tomato soup .
