Ever wonder how salad blends are created? Why certain flavors and textures are packed together? At Markon we take product innovation seriously, dedicating time and resources to bring the most delicious and on-trend mixes to market.
Markon strives to meet foodservice operators’ needs, whether that be through high quality, year-round consistency, convenient pack sizes, or innovative products. One way we keep our finger on industry pulse is by working closely with our member and customer chefs that span the U.S. and Canada. These are the folks that know what’s selling and what tastes delicious—that’s why at our annual Chef Summit, we frequently include R&D sessions that give this qualified group full license to get creative, mixing, matching, and combining lettuce and leafy green ingredients from our top growers to develop new blends based on the most current trends in the industry.
Our most recent product, Bistro Butter Blend, is the result of one of these sessions. The mix combines green leaf, red butter, and green oak lettuces, resulting in a salad base that gives customers significant height on the plate, the crunch of green leaf, the velvety feel of red butter, and the slightly bitter notes of green oak. This unique blend pairs well with a wide variety of proteins, dressings, and produce add-ons that allows operators to skip the labor while still creating personal recipes for their menus.
Shipped in a convenient 3/2-pound pack size, Ready-Set-Serve Bistro Butter Blend is now available exclusively through Markon’s five member distributors. Talk to your sales representative today!
