Spotlight on Food Preservation
Time-tested food preservation techniques, such as fermenting, pickling, curing and canning, have been used for centuries. Chefs and manufacturers carry on that tradition today to impart bold flavors into food and extend the life of seasonal fruits and vegetables. From fish sauce and kimchi to preserved lemons and pungent black garlic, consumers have shown that they’re open to expanding their palates with the sour, tangy, umami-forward flavors of ingredients that are given time to age and mature. You can introduce these intense flavors to consumers in a fun and accessible way through authentic sauces, seasonings, marinades and more.
