Fuchs North America introduces “The Braising Box,” a collection of seasonings, bases and flavors

Fuchs North America, a leading maker of seasonings, flavor systems and taste solutions for the food industry, introduces The Braising Box – a new line of flavors that translate popular cooking methods into craveable flavors. The collection’s 4 seasonings are inspired by the latest trends in culinary techniques and offer complex flavors that are sure to delight consumers of all ages.

This collection presents delicious seasoning blends ideal for seafood, proteins and desserts. These items are also the starting point for food manufacturers and foodservice establishments to develop their own rich signature product offerings, with Fuchs’ culinary specialists at their side.

The New Collection
The Braising Box includes the following 4 seasoning blends and bases:

Grilled Cobbler Seasoning
Osso Buco Seasoning
Smoky Brisket 2.0 Seasoning
Szechuan Ginger Broth Base

In introducing the collection, Shannon Cushen, Fuchs’ director of marketing, explained the strategy behind the collection. “Consumers want their food to tell a story, and they also have been pushing for more complex flavors. As a result, call-outs to specific cooking methods and the flavors that they evoke have been growing rapidly across categories. Think “grilled,” “smoky” and “roasted” flavors,” she observes.

“Our newest collection brings cooking method call-outs and culinary techniques to life with delicious seasonings that offer depth and complexity – exactly what consumers are craving,” Cushen adds.

Fuchs helps food companies make sense of the trends and tap into where the culinary energy is strongest. In this spirit, each of the items that make up Fuchs’ Braising Box features innovative seasonings that are tailored specifically to meet the flavor needs of food manufacturers.

Palatable Protein Seasonings
Crafted by Fuchs’ Corporate Executive Chef, Howard Cantor, each of the seasonings in this collection are designed to deliver mouthwatering flavor, inspired by culinary trends. Our Smoky Brisket 2.0 Seasoning is a new take on the craveable tastes of Texas Barbeque. “This isn’t your average brisket; we’ve taken an already trendy dish but ramped up the flavor with smoky notes for complexity. This seasoning is a crowd pleaser, for sure,” he describes.

Nothing says classic quite like our Osso Buco Seasoning, which is elevated with roasted notes and a savory blend of herbs and spices. “Perfect for cooler months, this seasoning can give just about any protein comfort food status,” Cantor explains.

Craveable Cobbler Seasoning
Our Grilled Cobbler Seasoning is a modern take on a traditional dessert. Its sweetness is perfectly blended with smoky grilled notes, which delivers a flavor profile that has a "wow-factor"

Scrumptious Broth Base
A match made in heaven for seafood of all types, the Szechuan Ginger Broth Base in our new collection is packed full of complex flavor. Not only does this seasoning feature a trendy Asian-inspired flavor profile, but it also serves up serious versatility – use it as a poaching liquid for fish, or as a broth for a seafood stew.
