Emma Holden, group head of marketing at Country Range Group, said: “Potato products continue to be one of the most popular products for caterers and consumers, appearing in some shape or form on every menu whether they are chipped, mashed, boiled, fried or roasted.
“Fries and wedges are no longer just considered a side dish and we’re seeing a host of creative caterers turning them in to the focal point of a dish by loading them with on-trend toppings and sauces. That’s why it’s never been more important for caterers to make sure that their spuds pack a punch on the flavour front and deliver that all important crunch.
“Our development chef Paul Dickson has been highlighting to customers how the humble fry can be elevated to even greater heights with some creative recipes like various global inspired loaded fries ideas and Canadian Poutine.”
