Authentic Recipe Soups and Pasta Entrees from Moosewood Restaurant Debut in Supermarkets Nationwide
Fresh, organic vegetables, herbs and spices and premium organic pasta give Moosewood soups and gourmet pasta entrees their imaginatively delicious flavors
Brockton, MASS - June 25, 2003 - Organic vegetarian soups and gourmet pasta entrees from the famous Moosewood Restaurant and award-winning cookbook series will soon be available to take home from your nearby grocery store. Starting in late Summer 2003, six of Moosewood's most popular soups will appear in the refrigerated cases of supermarkets and natural food stores across the nation. In addition, four gourmet pasta entrees made with Moosewood's flavorful sauces will be sold in retailer freezer sections.
In 2002, Fairfield Farm Kitchens of Brockton, Massachusetts signed a long-term partnership with Moosewood. Combining Moosewood's culinary expertise and Fairfield Farm Kitchens' premium quality food processing capabilities, meticulous care has been taken to create two premium organic product offerings that will appeal to the tastes of consumers with sophisticated palates. Each variety is prepared in strict accordance with the original Moosewood recipe to ensure the same quality and taste experience you would have if you ordered the meal at the restaurant or prepared it in your own kitchen.
"We love our new organic Moosewood soups and gourmet pasta entrees. After months of careful development in conjunction with our partners at Fairfield Farm Kitchens, we have successfully brought the integrity and fresh flavors of our authentic Moosewood Restaurant recipes to supermarkets nationwide, without compromising our quality standards," said Nancy Lazarus, President of Moosewood Inc.
The six new Moosewood Soups are Creamy Broccoli & Cheese, Texas Two Bean Chili, Creamy Potato & Corn Chowder, Hearty Mushroom Barley, Mediterranean Tomato & Rice and Tuscan White Bean & Vegetable. They will be priced between $4.49-$5.99 and packaged in 18 oz. containers (a meal for one person or side dish for two people).
In addition, Fairfield Farm Kitchens is introducing Moosewood frozen gourmet pasta entrees. This line of organic vegetarian meals is also based on some of Moosewood's most popular dinner classics and is prepared with the same fresh-from-the-garden ingredients and meticulous care as the soups. Customers can choose from four luscious heat-and-serve pasta entrees including Broccoli & Pasta Parmesan, Farfalle & Spinach Pesto Sauce, Macaroni & Three Cheeses and Spicy Penne Puttanesca. These 10 oz. entrees will be priced between $2.49 - $4.49 in retail outlets nationwide.
Fairfield Farm Kitchens President & CEO Frank Carpenito summarized the rollout of the Moosewood product lines by saying: "American consumers have been demanding higher quality, delicious tasting heat-and-serve meal solutions for years. The combination of the culinary talents of Moosewood and Fairfield Farm Kitchens has now made this consumer demand a reality. There are no products on the market today whose flavor and quality compare with these delicious new Moosewood soups and pasta entrees."
