INGREDIENT trends

do," Mr. Morris says. "Some chefs ask us
to develop something with a little more or a
little less heat; we'll develop, then send them
a sample for approval." Having created an
estimated 5,000 customer blends over five
decades, the company has the expertise to
basically provide whatever chefs want.
He particularly enjoys tracking flavor
trends, noting how some spices and blends
are only popular for a year or two. Currently,
he sees gochugaru Korean chili powder and
Aleppo peppers are having their moment; ras
el hanout, a Moroccan-style spice blend, is
also popular this year.

Whether recipes offered by meal kit companies come from restaurateurs, from reputable publications, associations, commodity
boards or are developed in-house, somewhere along the way a research and development chef's expertise has most likely been
tastefully included. Many meal kit companies
develop their recipes to stand out from all the

rest. "Chefs seeking inspiration can look to
global flavor trends to create differentiation
in meal kit plans," suggests Gary Patterson,
CEC, PCIII, principal research chef, manager
culinary science for McCormick & Co., Hunt
Valley, Md.
"Beyond the familiar seasoning blends,
chefs can use Ethiopian berbere seasoning,
for example, for a warm fragrant heat, or a
red curry blend from Thailand or elsewhere in
Asia (beyond traditional Indian yellow); they'll
create a broader flavor profile through [the
addition of] culinary-inspired global spice and
herb blends," he said.
For meal kits with health and wellness as
the focus, such as Williams-Sonoma-owned
Sun Basket or 100% plant-based Purple
Carrot, creating recipes featuring the big, bold
flavors of herbs and spices should be the key
strategy since they may well mitigate reduced
sodium, fat and sugar content, Mr. Patterson
said. "The whole intent of creating mindful
eating is to create satiety - not just reducing
sodium, fat or sugar." *
