August 2009

Because June is a month of fresh flavors and even fresher ideas, this installment of Five Fresh Ideas is all about mouthwatering tastes of summer that are easy to create but impossible to resist.

This month we’re focusing on a menu trend that has become incredibly popular in recent years: Indian cuisine. In fact, in 2006-2008, Indian cuisine has grown by 25% on restaurant menus*, including curry, raisin, date, sambal and toasted cumin flavors. So take a look at this month’s Five Fresh Indian Ideas. Your customers will be glad you did.
