Jacket potatoes
according to the British Potato council, nearly half of all servings of jacket potatoes go through education and business and industry. in fact the spud with the jacket on is the second largest potato category after chips, mainly due to its healthy alternative promotion. the majority of jacket potatoes are sold as lunchtime meals rather than as a side dish and 20 per cent of jacket potatoes are sold with a salad.
Hash Browns
the growth of casual dining and all day dining has increased the options for the full english breakfast to be served. obviously, the hash brown is an essential ingredient and country range has just launched a new hash brown product. today chefs are certainly looking for a more home-made look.
Wedges
Wedges continue to grow in popularity as many menus encourage consumers to upgrade from standard bowls of chips. Sharing plates including dips continue to drive steady demand in the pub trade. aviko's most popular flavour continues to be its Spicy variety, followed closely by Southern fried. country range has also recently launched a new seasoned wedges variety that again helps to make life quick and simple in service kitchens.
Mashed Potato
following limits to the amount of chips that can be served in schools, mashed potato is another potato area that continues to grow in the education sector. aviko reports that more hotels and pubs are offering more premium choices that include coming with added butter and milk. Seventy-one per cent of mashed potato is still most likely to be eaten as part of a main meal, although it is very versatile and can be used for other dishes such as fish pie.
