INSTITUTIONAL & COMMERCIAL FOOD SERVICE
People are asking for more protein.
Want a simple recipe
and a delicious meal?
Edo® gives you both.
DO YOU RECOGNIZE YOURSELF?
Do any of these situations sound familiar to you?
"We're tired of meat substitutes. We don't want to serve overly processed foods to our guests. Plus, they don't always taste good."
"Trying to meet protein recommendations with lentils, which have half the protein of meat, turns our meals into a mushy mess that's hard to eat."
"Ever since we started avoiding soy, we've been going in circles. We're not going to serve eggs and lentils every day."
"We need at least one vegetarian option on the menu. But the options available on the market are often disappointing."
OK, BUT HOW DO WE USE IT?
The simplest ingredient you've ever used.
Frozen; can be added directly to your recipe.
No thawing, no pre-cooking, no rehydration.
Cold link, hot link.
Available frozen (IQF) through our partners at the Pomona Group, or shipped directly from our factory.
AND HOW DOES THIS IMPROVE MY MEAL?
+30 g of EDO. The simple step that makes all the difference.
CASE 1 · ENHANCING A VEGETARIAN DISH
Edo® Spinach Pasta, the best-seller in school cafeterias
WITHOUTEdo®
GEMRCN: starchy dish
Protein: 9.5 g
Iron: 4.6 mg
WITHEdo®
GEMRCN: main protein dish
Protein: 17.6 g
Iron: 10.1 mg, rich in iron
Same recipe, better nutrition. And best of all, it tastes great.
CASE 2 · MAKING A MEAT-BASED RECIPE VEGETARIAN
Vegetarian Bolognese
Replace ground meat withEdo®, reduce your costs, and maintain—or even improve—the nutritional quality. Egalim-compliant, easy to prepare, and a hit with guests.
CASE 3 · INVISIBLE ENRICHMENT
The Chocolate Cake
Edo® looks like chocolate chips and blends right into the mixture. The color, taste, and texture remain unchanged (it even enhances the chocolate flavor). The nutritional value, however, is significantly improved. Ideal for the medical and social care sectors, functional snacks, premium commercial foodservice, and anyone for whom a high-protein option is important
CASE 4 · VEGETARIAN, NUTRITIOUS, NATURAL GYOZA
A filling for gyoza or vegetarian ravioli that's just as high in protein as the original—without a long list of ingredients
WITHOUTEdo®
Plant-based meat made with 10 ingredients, or legumes low in protein
Highly processed and less nutritious
WITHEdo®
Spirulina and sunflower oil—that's it
More protein per 100 grams than meat, and a clean recipe
