Blogging: Waitrose Launches Innovative Frozen Private Brand - from "MY private brand" by Christopher Durham

 

United Kingdom based grocer Waitrose recently launched its new line of Private Brand frozen foods, Waitrose Frozen. The new products will allow customers to whip up a delicious meal in minutes, straight from the freezer, with no need to defrost. Customers may choose from meals for one, or create a feast for the entire family with risotto and pastas.

Using techniques found in five-star kitchens, the dishes are created using sous-vide process, which literally means ‘under vacuum’; they are then cooked long and slow in the sealed bag. The dishes include Beef in Ale, ox cheek slow-cooked in a Boddingtons ale sauce, Beef Goulash, tender Lamb Tagine and Pork in Cider. Frozen risotto and pastas are individually frozen to allow for single servings. Innovative and ingenious single-portion frozen sauces will include Green Pesto, Tomato Ragu and Cheddar Cheese Sauce.
