Speed Scratch Product & Recipe Suggestions

ne of the biggest challenges in foodservice today is labor. Finding qualified food preparation staff and having the budget to reward those that bring culinary talent can be difficult.

Speed scratch cooking can assist you in making your foodservice great no matter who’s in the kitchen.

Speed scratch preparation involves using convenience or ready-made products and adding a few additional ingredients to create a custom, homemade-quality recipe.

Perfect Pasta

The macaroni, egg noodles, rotini and cavatappi below are precooked and in boilin-bag packaging. Just boil to refresh, remove from packaging, add meat such as browned ground beef and a seasoned, prepared pasta sauce…and a great Italian entrée is ready to go. The lasagna rollups can be baked with a prepared sauce for a vegetarian option. More precooked products from Marzetti are also available.

Precooked Elbow Macaroni (983780 – 6/3 lb) Precooked Egg Noodles (983580 – 6/3 lb) Precooked Rotini (984190 – 6/3 lb) Precooked Cavatappi (983478 – 6/3 lb) Precooked Lasagna Cheese Rollup (983560 – 1/10 lb)

Coconut Macaroons Yield: 48 cookies 1 cup 1 box 8 cups

Water, cool General Mills Gold Medal ® Angel Food Cake Mix (401560) Azar Sweetened Coconut Flakes (464038)

Place water in mixing bowl. Add cake mix. Using a whisk, mix until well blended. Using a mixer, mix on medium speed 2 minutes. Add coconut. Fold gently just until incorporated. Use #30 scoop to deposit finished mix onto paper-lined sheet pans. Bake at 350°F for 20-24 minutes.

Select Pot Roast Bottom Round (349194 – 2/8-10 lb)

This fully cooked item can be used for roast beef dinner, French dips, Philly and BBQ sandwiches, hot beef sandwiches, stew, enchiladas…and much more. Here are a few ideas:

French Dip

Add au jus made from Custom Culinary Master’s Touch ® Au Jus Base (501508) .

BBQ Pulled Beef Sandwich

Add BBQ sauce.

Beef Stew

Add beef gravy made from Custom Culinary PanRoast ® Beef Flavored Gravy Mix (504070) and thawed Norpac Flav-R-Pac ® Stew Vegetables (962340) .

SAVE $ WITH DILUTION CONTROL

EQUI PM ENTA N D SUPPL I ES

EASY AS 1-2- 3

Roxanne Hassman, Martin Bros. Janitorial Category Marketing Manager A dilution control system automatically mixes a concentrated chemical with water to make a ready-to-use solution that is generally dispensed into a spray bottle or mop bucket. One of the main advantages of a dilution control system is cost savings.

There is a significant cost savings on a dilution control concentrate versus ready-to-use product. Let’s take glass cleaner for example. A case of 4/2 liter concentrated glass cleaner might cost around $75.00. This case will make 352 quarts of ready-to-use glass cleaner, so that equates to $.21 per quart of glass cleaner. If you were to buy a case of 12/1 quart ready-to-use glass cleaner, it would cost around $42.00, which equates to $3.50 per quart.

Potential Product Cost Savings $.21 vs. $3.50

$3.29/QT

The cost savings with concentrate is largely due to the fact that when manufacturers determine the price of concentrated chemicals, they don’t have to factor in the additional freight cost of water. Freight costs play a major role in determining the case price that manufacturers need to charge.

concentrate = SAVINGS!

LET’S TAKE THIS ONE STEP FURTHER… While you probably receive your chemicals on a truck with other supplies, here’s an example for you to get an idea of the handling and cost involved if you were to receive these products shipped via FedEx® or UPS®.

A case of TMA ChemWorx 256Worx concentrated disinfectant contains 4/2 liter bottles and weighs about 18 pounds. This one case will make 544 gallons (or 4,896 pounds) of ready-to-use product. So, you’re dealing with 18 pounds versus 4,896 pounds. If you were to ship 256Worx halfway across the United States, it would cost around $44.00 per case. If you were to ship the equivalent 544 gallons (or 4,896 pounds) of ready-to-use disinfectant, it would cost approximately $13.50 per gallon for a total of $7,344.00 in shipping costs.

That’s a difference of $7,300.00!

The dilution control system also eliminates the unnecessary “glug” of more chemical concentrate than needed. When mixing by hand, many people “glug” excess chemical into the water because they think that more is better. However, that is NOT the case with chemicals. Using too much chemical can be dangerous, and it can also leave a chemical residue on surfaces. By properly diluting chemicals using a dilution control system, you will see cost savings and a better cleaning outcome.
