Details
Harvested at the peak of ripeness, these versatile 22 lb. IQF black currants are then quickly and individually frozen to maintain their freshness at their best form. Adding these black currants to your menu allows endless versatile options, while saving on the cost of labor. Bake into pies, cobblers, crisps, and galettes for rustic, housemade baked goods, or serve a slice as a warm dessert with a side of vanilla ice cream. Create black currant glazes and vinaigrettes to dress savory salads, meats, and roasted root vegetables with a subtly tart and sweet dimension.
Macerate these black currants into jam and offer it as a side option to your breakfast pastries, or use it to fill danishes, hand pies, and cake fillings for a fun fruit flavor! The jam can also be used to fold into meringues for a beautiful swirled effect, topped off on panna cottas, and can even be incorporated into buttercream frosting to add a more diverse and unique flavor profile to your cupcakes and cakes! Creating homemade syrup is another wonderful and easy way to use this frozen fruit. Drizzle over waffles, pancakes, and crepes, or fold into yogurt and ricotta for breakfast items. Plus, as a syrup base, this can be added into shaken specialty cocktails for a fun, fruity way to mix things up! With so many creations to be discovered, your next signature menu item will benefit from these IQF black currants.
When fruits are first picked, they start to lose their nutritional value, and freezing in masses lumps the fruit together. Using the IQF method prevents this from happening, and instead keeps the fruit's flavor, structure, nutritional benefits, and natural appearance intact, letting your dishes look and taste their best every time. Thanks to their preservation, the black currants taste deliciously fresh; customers will never guess they were actually frozen!
