While many urban eateries across the U.S. have a focus on globally inspired flavors, many countries around the globe look at the U.S. as a culinary hub for inspiration. This cookbook contains a collection of recipes from across the globe that are meant to inspire and teach chefs how to utilize U.S. frozen and dehydrated potato products.
The countries that inspired the dishes include Spain, Morocco, France, Greece, Thailand, China, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Germany, Italy, India, and the United States. The dishes highlight the universality of potatoes, including Aloo Tikki, a potato patty from southern India, Kartoffel Klosse, a German potato dumpling stuffed with brown butter and toasted bread, and even a favorite in the American Midwest, cheesy hash brown casserole.
The labor-saving techniques demonstrated in the recipes, such as the Italian gnocchi with pecorino cheese and truffle, teaches chefs that processed U.S. potato products, such as dehydrated potatoes, can reduce costs to their bottom line. Dishes like the Chinese XO style loaded fries give foodservice operators motivation to take cultural flavors and use them with American frozen potato products.
