An economical way to start implementing the Cook Chill Process

Whether you are familiar with the Cook Chill Method of cooking, storing, and serving food, or this is the first time hearing about it, read on to learn how  Cook Chill can solve many of your food preparation and serving needs. 

So what exactly does Cook Chill mean?  Cook Chill is a controlled system of cooking, rapid chilling, and storing of food to be served at a later time. Cook Chill can be scaled from very large food production areas to smaller "mom and pop" type restaurants.  Foods are fully cooked, rapidly chilled and refrigerated or stored frozen, then rethermed to proper temperatures for serving at a later time.

Benefits of Cook Chill:
  • Consistent Fresh Quality & Taste
  • Extended Shelf Life
  • Withstands Temperatures Ranging from -20 F to 212 F
  • Requires Minimal Training to Use

Cook Chill is ideal for packaging large batches of Soups, Sauces, Stews, Gravy, Pasta Dishes & more. Batch cooking enables  the chef/cook to efficiently prepare the food at a central location and supply other serving locations while maintaining  consistent quality & taste.  Bagged product can be reheated in hot water, a steamer or opened to empty contents into a kettle or serving pan.  Cook Chill packaging also provides extended shelf life when chilled, stored & refrigerated or frozen properly.
