>> Unilever Food Solutions’ pub food expert Chris Barber has created a guide packed with hints and tips to help pubs serve a standout roast.
The guide has been created as part of its British Roast Dinner Week campaign, and is based on research into consumer preferences when it comes to roast dinners, the nation’s favourite meal. It includes insight into what consumers think makes the perfect roast, how people like their gravy and the veg that they want to see on their plate. Says Chris: “Roast dinners have great profit potential for pubs. Building a reputation for a great roast can get customers in the door and make your pub stand out from the competition. Our How to Guide gives pubs simple, cost-effective tips on how they can serve a standout roast, from making veg the hero of the plate to simple tricks for making gravy special.”
