Abstract
Fresh Direct, the specialist foodservice fresh produce provider, has added two new premium products, Chef’s Choice Salad Potatoes and Chef’s Choice Baking Potatoes, selected to deliver ‘exceptional’ taste and consistency all year round.

Potatoes are a cornerstone of the dining experience, and these varieties have been selected by chefs, for chefs to deliver taste, consistency, and quality. Chef’s Choice Potatoes are selected from premium British varieties:

  • The Salad Potatoes deliver a fresh, vibrant flavour and a smooth, waxy skin – perfect for salads and light dishes.
  • The Baking Potatoes are generously sized, delivering a light, fluffy interior and a crisp, golden skin – the ultimate choice for perfect jacket potatoes.

Each batch undergoes rigorous checks for starch and sugar levels, dry matter content, and most importantly, a sample from every load is cooked to guarantee perfect performance for chipping, roasting, and baking.

Ian Nottage, head of food development at Fresh Direct, said: “Potatoes are an integral part of the menu. Our Chef’s Choice range has been rigorously tested by chefs, for chefs – and the results have been phenomenal. These potatoes will make a real difference in kitchens across the UK. These potatoes provide the quality and consistency that chefs need to ensure that they create perfect dishes every single time.”

British-grown and available year-round, Chef’s Choice potatoes come in distinctive recyclable packaging, ensuring sustainability alongside quality.
