Pre-mix manufacturer Middleton Foods launches vegan product

Middleton Foods has introduced a new soy- and wheat-free vegan burger mix for foodservice.

The new vegan burger mix comes in 2kg tubs.

Containing no E numbers, the pre-mix is made using vegetables, including carrot, pumpkin and beetroot.

When combined with oil and water, the new offering can easily be mixed and shaped into patties by any member of the kitchen team, without the requirement for a specific skill set. 

The 2kg tubs contain enough for 46 burgers, at an estimated cost of 50p per patty, enabling a “fantastic profit margin” for catering establishments ranging from cafés and casual dining outlets to care homes.

In addition to burgers, the mix can be used to make sausage rolls, Scotch eggs and other traditionally meat-based menu items. It is gluten-free and certified by Coeliac UK.
