Revealing how to cook delicious, clean and nutritious industrial catering meals

1. How to cook clean, delicious and nutritious industrial catering meals

Cooking industrial catering meals must be based on each day's menu; to make the dishes delicious, everything from selecting ingredients to cooking, seasoning and cooking over high or low heat must be done right. Let's dig deeper with STAVI.

1.1. Tips for choosing ingredients for industrial catering

To ensure delicious, nutritious dishes and preserve the flavor of the food, ingredients must be fresh and clean, of clear origin, and safe and hygienic.

• For meat: The cut surface must be bright pink, and dark red inside. The skin should spring back well when pressed, the muscle should be firm, and pressing the meat with a finger should not leave a dent. The meat must have no foul or unusual smell and must not be slimy.

• For vegetables: They should be fresh and clean, not bruised, with a fresh skin that is not scratched or rotten. A good tip is not to buy out-of-season produce. Avoid produce with a strange smell, an unnaturally glossy color, or that feels light in the hand.

1.2. The industrial catering cooking stage

Cooking industrial catering meals the right way produces delicious dishes. Each dish suits different seasonings and is cooked over high or low heat. Here are some industrial catering cooking tips:

For stir-fried dishes:

• To ensure flavor and presentation and shorten cooking time, ingredients should be prepped, marinated and pre-processed in advance.

• For example, beef, goat meat and seafood should be marinated with seasoning 30 minutes beforehand. Vegetables should be washed, cut into bite-sized pieces and drained; they can be blanched in boiling water for a more attractive color.

• When stir-frying vegetables, work quickly over high heat and avoid covering the pan, to retain the nutrients in the dish.

For stewed dishes:

• Trim off the fat before stewing so that no scum forms on the dish

• The amount of water added should be level with the meat and bones in the pot. To make the stew thicker and tastier, you can add tapioca starch or cornstarch.

• Ingredients for stewing should be cut into bite-sized 3x4 cubes and simmered over low heat

For fried dishes:

• Do not fry too much food at once

• To prevent oil from splattering, let the food drain first. A good tip is to fry over low heat so the food cooks evenly and does not retain excess oil

• To check whether the food is done, pierce it with a chopstick: if red juice runs out, the food is not yet cooked.

For grilled dishes:

• Slice the meat thinly

• Marinate the ingredients thoroughly with seasoning 30 minutes in advance so the flavors soak in and taste rich

• When grilling, brush on a layer of oil so the food stays tender and does not stick to the grill

• Grill pork belly and avoid very fatty meat, as dripping fat will burn the food
