Prepared Fresh Food Products
With Aussies now leading busy lives, there as been an influx in the trend to purchase per-prepared ingredients that makes preparation and cooking time quicker at home, yet still maintains the use of fresh ingredients.
For example, marinated meats, crumbed meats, salad kits, rissoles, herb pastes, other meal kits (i.e preprepared pumpkin with roasting crumbs and trimmed fish with garlic butter and cooking instructions.)
TASK 4
1. Identify 3 pre-prepared fresh food products that you have used. Estimate how much time was saved during the preparation process by using this type of product.
Pre crumbed chicken schnitzels from the chicken shop - About 20 minutes was saved with the meat preparation and crumbing.
Salad kits that were pre washed - 15 mins for the preparation of all the ingredients and 5-10 minutes for the salad dressing.
Rissoles- 20 minutes to mix the ingredients and roll them into shape.
