6. Mike's Perfect Christmas Gravy
Did you know that nearly three-quarters of Brits (73%) say they are die hard gravy fans and at Christmas, getting it right couldn't be more important. That's why we’re leaving it up to the experts in our chef brigade. Here, Chef Mike share his recipe for how to get it just right.
7. Celebrating the NHS Chef of the Year
Our Christmas countdown continues and today we're celebrating the heroes of hospital catering. We were fortunate enough to sponsor the NHS Chef Of The Year and mentor the winning team from East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust!
We salute all the hard working kitchen teams in this most vital of sectors.
8. The multifunctional, 24-Hour Precipan
Bringing all of the elements of the perfect Christmas dinner together takes time and expertise, but it also helps if you have a multifunctional workhorse like the PRECIPAN by your side. This cool bit of kit brings total flexibility, versatility, and simplicity to the commercial kitchen, giving chefs the tools to master multiple methods of cooking in one compact footprint, optimising kitchen space and saving on equipment costs.
Chefs can use the PRECIPAN to sauté, steam, boil, poach, simmer, fry, grill, smoke or braise, opening up an infinite world of festive menu possibilities, from à la carte dining, right through to largescale catering operations. Find out more here.
