The “Big 4” ingredient trends from IFT

by Kym / Tuesday, 20 August 2024 / Published in Blog

Panko - breadcrumb alternativeLast month, manufacturers, suppliers, and technology companies gathered at Chicago’s McCormick Place for one of the food industry’s most significant events of the year. Companies launched new products and discussed moving toward a sustainable future, explicitly agreeing that consumers expect more from their food. It’s now the industry’s crucial role to deliver on these expectations.

Here are a few trends to expect later this year.

            • Industry fighting ultra-processed foods.
            • Higher expectations from food.
            • Better food textures.

At Upper Crust Enterprises, current food trends aren’t new or even trends; they are the core of our business and have been for almost 50 years. Our Authentic Japanese Panko and Tempura batter mix has always been made using locally sourced, all-natural, GMO-free ingredients.

Panko is a small but powerful ingredient

No artificial dyes, flavors, or additives. Compare our Authentic Panko’s ingredient declaration to standard breadcrumbs; you may be surprised by their label!

Our Authentic Panko is better suited for frying than standard breadcrumbs and maintains a crispy coating without becoming oily or soggy. It always delivers a light, crispy texture that will never overpower menu items.

Enhance the texture of your dishes by using Upper Crust Enterprises’ Authentic Panko instead of regular breadcrumbs. The airy and delicate crumb provides a crispy texture without making the food taste or look over-breaded or overcooked. Making this simple switch can elevate the quality of your dishes.

Exclusively for Professional Chef and Food Distributors

Upper-Crust-Package-FamilyWe invite all professional chefs and food distributors to try a free sample of our Authentic Japanese Panko.  Compare and experience the differences firsthand.

We guarantee Upper Crust Enterprises Authentic Japanese Panko will:

  • Taste lighter and crispy.
  • Have a delicate crispy texture that stays crispy longer.
  • Provides a better yield than standard Panko.
  • Deliver a better plate presentation making coating items look more prominent but not taste bready.

After you receive your sample visit our Recipe Suggestions have fun trying new recipes and discovering how a little crumb can greatly impact your favorite dishes!
