The new Major Shellfish Jus powder and a Seafood Paste Glace have both been developed in conjunction with Nathan whose input into the recipe development “has been invaluable.” Says Major’s managing director, David Bryant. “Nathan has an exceptional ‘sixth sense’ for creating a perfect balance of flavours. He has worked along side our in house development team to create two excellent bases which really capture all the seafood flavours of stock made in the traditional way – something which professional chefs so often do not have the time to do in today’s busy kitchens.” Explains David.
Major’s new thickened Shellfish Jus powder captures all the true seafood flavours of crab, shrimps, lobster and mussels and is as close as is possible to a kitchen made product. Easy to use, just sprinkle in to add body and flavour to any white sauce. Simply sprinkle or whisk into cold water, slowly bring to the boil and simmer, giving a superb base for an array of fish sauces. The Jus comes complete with a free measuring scoop for simple portion control. The perfect base for adding body and flavour to chowders, fish pies, risottos, other fish soups and sauces – it will very quickly become a secret ingredient in a whole range of savoury dishes.
According to Nathan Outlaw, “Major’s approach is based on using the finest ingredients and this guarantees a great flavour every time. I challenged David and the team to come up with a product that matched the stock I make myself. I can honestly say that the new Major Shellfish stock base is as good as the stock I create in my kitchen. I would recommend Major’s products to any chef that is enthusiastic about creating the best flavour possible for all their dishes!”
The new Major Shellfish bases focus on convenience for today’s professional kitchen without compromising on quality and flavour. This rich, flavour packed base has a velvet smooth texture
which has a perfect base for numerous classic and everyday sauces and soups. Supplied in 500g bottles
yielding up to 20 Litres per bottle.
Brian Eastment, Majors own executive development chef explains,
“None of Major products contain MSG, HVPs or any artificial additives. Chefs using Major stocks are not afraid to season their finished dishes because like own made stocks the salt levels are low and possibly the lowest in the industry. As water based products, the Jus and the Glace will not separate when alcohol or cream is added”.
