Features & Benefits

Benefits

  • They typically have an application rate of only about 70-80% vs. fresh/IQF due to the natural moisture reduction having already occurred during the cooking process.
  • By being aseptically packed, these can be kept in standard ambient storage without refrigeration or having to rely on a costly fresh/frozen supply chain typically attributed to onions.
  • Ready To Use by virtue of these being already cooked and packed aseptic
