hot peppers
smoke and bbq
Spicy menu items and ingredients – especially sriracha – are very popular right now. They’re on the big chain menus, and trusted brands are creating products to meet the need. For instance, McCormick recently released a new line of chile spices and seasonings – Crushed Chipotle (475761), Ground Jalapeño (90620513) and Sriracha (475771) – and Custom Culinary has a new Sriracha Lime Concentrate (500061). If it’s spicy or says sriracha, it’s part of the hot trend in food service!
You know smoke and BBQ are hot when there are festivals and competitions all across the country year after year to celebrate them! Not to mention that every BBQ sauce and smoking recipe is so unique that people are constantly testing out renditions and choosing favorites. Even manufacturers are continually adding new flavors of BBQ to fit growing trends. For instance, French’s Cattlemen’s recently introduced Chipotle (561760) and Kickin’ Korean™ (561770) BBQ sauces. Thus, smoke and barbecue are always at the “top of the News Feed.”

adjusted menu prices Food cost, increased wages, the healthcare bill and trying to retain quality employees can all dig deep into a minimal foodservice profit margin as it is. The way to stay on top of it is to truly make it a priority to regularly analyze your profits and increase menu prices where and when needed.

This year, in many cases, the avian flu upset the whole menu process and ability to purchase daily staples. We have thus learned that we need to be able to quickly react to major shifts in our menu practices and markets. In order to do so, have an idea of and even promote what you can substitute for some of the main ingredients in each of your dishes. Your dishes will then become universal recipes that can be served with a variety of different substitutes and additions. You will be able to satisfy even more tastes as well as be ready if you need to make a menu change.

TASTE TOMORROW TODAY
Chefs continue to get creative by using different, underutilized cuts of meat to control menu pricing in some places while in other spots opting for unique and often upscale items to help set themselves apart from competitors. So, how do you figure out what to do to get creative while maximizing profitability? For starters, it takes regularly looking over your profits on each menu item with the help of tools such as Martin Bros.’ Profit Analyzer. Then, let culinary expertise guild you. And, you could look ahead for one great recipe idea, too!

health factors
smaller footprint
The fact of the matter is that health will likely always be a factor. But, how do you know if you’ve got the healthy factors on your menu that help draw in business and satisfy your customers? A good tip is to stick with some core designations that can fit many different types of diets year after year, such as low fat, low calorie, low carb, low sodium, all natural, gluten free and vegetarian/vegan.
Utilizing products as well as features in your building that take up less space and are more environmentally-friendly are becoming more and more important factors for success. Having a small footprint can help save time and money as well as attract business. Manufacturers continue to introduce new products that fit this trend, such as Sugar Foods’ recent kickoff of Ecostick Zero Calorie Sweeteners (572650, 572660, 572670 and 572680).
24/7 breakfast For a couple years now, we’ve been talking about this breakfast-all-day trend. This year, however, McDonald’s addition of an all-day breakfast menu serves to make the trend even bigger. If a breakfast section isn’t in your near future, however, think about incorporating a menu item or two that would be popular any time of day.
Recipe on page 7!
bigger burgers Burgers were just burgers…until they started getting the custom treatment a couple of years ago. The possibilities for customization seemed limitless – from choosing your toppings to your own specialty bun. Now, the latest trend in burgers makes them even bigger! Everyone’s adding in the ability to pile ingredients into the burger itself for an extra unique creation and huge burst of flavor. For instance, Rancher’s Legacy has a patty that incorporates jalapeño!
next generation customer service Customer service is becoming increasingly important in food service, as we’re seeing more and more factors come into play that can affect and publicize a guest’s experience. For example, the need for menu price increases and staff shortages make it necessary to make sure you are counterbalancing with excellent customer service. And we’re not only talking about the customer service that you provide inside your establishment. The customer service that you provide online – on your website and through social media – is equally important, as online opportunities to increase and nurture your customer base continue to grow.

7 Tips & Products for Effective Ergonomics Julie Halfpop, RDN, LD Martin Bros. Director of Nutrition Services
Ergonomics involves adjusting a job to an employee to prevent injuries related to repetitive motions and other related work factors. Minimizing workers’ compensation and keeping employees well by using effective ergonomics makes both good financial sense and good public relations sense.
Here are some ways that you can create effective ergonomics in your foodservice workplace: 1. Use ergonomically-correct utensils and equipment.
Firm Grip™ Utensils Some of the most essential tools in the kitchen when it comes to peeling, prepping and processing food.
2. Ensure knives are sharpened regularly, and
• Patented, ergonomic soft grip handles • Non-slip grip • Dishwasher safe
3. Dice, chop or mix foods using mechanical devices,
Straight Edge Straight Peeler (90423855)
use the right knife for the job.
or purchase pre-cut or pre-peeled items.
4. Adjust height of work surfaces to best fit individual employees, zeroing in on elbow height.
Straight Edge Y Peeler (90439272) Cheese Plane (90423856) Zester/Lemon Peeler (90423858) Apple Corer (90423859)
5. Train workers on proper lifting.

5 KEYS TO
healthy skin Deb Elings, RN, WCC, Certified PAC Trainer
Martin Bros. Medical Supplies Specialist
Making sure that patients’ skin is healthy is very important in healthcare. Malnourished skin can be painful, takes time to heal and needs to be protected from future damage.
Here are some keys to ensuring patients’ skin health:
14 5 2 3
TE AM APPROACH
Everyone who has a relationship with and interest in the wellbeing of a patient/ resident must communicate and work together in order to ensure the best health for the patient. This team may include: • Nurses/CNAs/Direct Care Workers • Dietitians/Dietary Staff • Physical Therapists/Occupational Therapists/Speech Therapists • Physicians • Family Members • Patient (The patient is the most important part of the team! It is his/ her health. Make sure to include him/her in care discussions.)
GOOD NUTRITION
Always try to get a patient/resident to try food first. If this doesn’t work, the team needs to look at providing supplements that are high in protein and calories. In times of stress – such as when a patient has a wound – he/she will sometimes also lose conditionally-essential amino acids. Therefore, make sure that chosen supplements also include these amino acids. Using these types of supplements will help the patient’s body heal from the inside out.
H Y D R AT I O N
Making sure that a patient/resident remains hydrated at all times is also very important. Here are some tips to help the team focus on hydration:
• Offer fluids during all activities and cares. • During meals, place differentcolored napkins at place settings of high-risk residents. • Place a symbol, such as a water drop, at the bedsides of high-risk residents. • Remember that when residents are on a Med Pass product, they need additional fluids.
H E A LT H Y W E I G H T
Making sure that a patient/resident maintains a healthy weight is very important. Here are some tips to help the team focus on healthy weight maintenance: • Offer snacks at all activities. • Provide six small meals per day. • Keep updated lists of likes and dislikes. • Assure proper tableside positioning at meals. • Weigh patients frequently.
AV O I D P R E S S U R E ULCERS
Pressure ulcers are one of the most serious problems that can develop from malnourished skin and/or improper care. Here are some tips to help prevent pressure ulcers: • Teach and encourage residents to shift weight every 15 minutes. • Turn and/or reposition non-ambulatory residents a minimum of every 2 hours. • Inspect residents’ skin during bath and when changing clothes. • Apply lotion to patients’ backs, bony prominences and dry, flaky skin at bath time and as needed. • Protect high-risk areas and current ulcers from further/future damage.

7 Things EvEry OpEraTOr OughT TO KnOw abOuT nsF LisTEd shELving 1
What criteria and/or design features is NSF looking out for when they evaluate product for certification?
2
What does the certification process entail?
3 4 5
18
Every piece of food equipment has its own design/construction, material and even performance requirements depending upon the type of equipment and its intended end use. For shelving certification, NSF International looks at a multitude of factors including cleanability and corrosion resistance.
For certification to NSF/ANSI 2, food equipment requires a thorough review of materials, a physical evaluation of the equipment to ensure compliance to NSF standard design and construction requirements and possibly performance testing depending on the type of equipment. Once any issues are resolved and there is evidence that the equipment meets all the applicable requirements of the standard, then certification can be granted.
How early in the design of a product does NSF get involved?
NSF International encourages companies to contact them as early as possible in the equipment design process. NSF International experts often get involved in the R&D process to help prevent issues later down the line, but they can become involved at any stage in the design process.
What is the ongoing audit process once a product has been approved?
Prior to certification, NSF International auditors conduct the first announced visit to a facility to ensure all personnel involved are aware of all the requirements of NSF International certification including record keeping and facility access. After certification, NSF International conducts unannounced audits to ensure that all products bearing the NSF mark are being manufactured in the same manner as originally certified.
Why is it important that a foodservice operator invests in products that are NSF listed, and how does this protect them?
Investing in an NSF/ANSI certified food safety product ensures that the product will not leach harmful chemicals into food, is cleanable and is not likely to harbor bacteria.
6
Why would it not be recommended that an operator purchase a non-NSF listed shelving product?
7
What risk do operators run if they choose non-NSF listed products for a commercial application?
The NSF International certification process for NSF/ANSI 2, which covers shelving products used in commercial foodservice, ensures that the product meets requirements for sanitation, design and fabrication as well as performance for food handling and processing. Purchasing equipment certified to this standard can provide assurance that the equipment has been tested for corrosion and cleanability.
Certification provides assurance that the equipment has been independently reviewed and tested by NSF International and meets all applicable design, material and performance requirements. Without this assurance, operators run the risk of purchasing equipment that will not withstand the rigors of a commercial foodservice operation and may prove to be unsafe. Because health departments look for NSF certified equipment during their inspections, using uncertified equipment can also result in violations and interruption of business operations, including delayed store or restaurant openings.

INFECTION PREVENTION Cleaning Protocols to Help Prevent the Spread of Illness-Causing Germs Roxanne Hassman Martin Bros. Janitorial Category Marketing Manager It’s the time of year when illnesses that are more prevalent in the fall and winter, such as the flu, come to a peak. Therefore, to help keep your employees and customers healthy, it’s important to make sure you’re following the proper infection prevention cleaning procedures. Make sure you’re cleaning both hard and soft surfaces. Hard surfaces such as light switches, door handles, railings, chairs, tables and faucets are prime areas for germs to hide. In addition, microorganisms can live on soft surfaces, too. Therefore, adding a routine to address soft surfaces such as couches, cushions and mouse pads may also help reduce the transmission of infections. For hard surfaces: 1. Clean off any excess dirt. 2. Thoroughly wet surface by using a disinfecting wipe or disinfecting solution in a spray bottle. 3. Allow disinfectant to contact surface for minimum contact time. (Read label for proper contact time.) 4. Rinse if necessary. For soft surfaces, routinely launder curtains, linens, employee uniforms and other soft surfaces in your facility. In addition, use an EPA-registered product to kill bacteria on soft surfaces between launderings and on soft surfaces that cannot be laundered.
Here are some disinfectants available along with some of their kill claims and contact times required:
