06_SR_SimSauc_ThRedCury_3DHR_cmyk logo in a gray background | 06_SR_SimSauc_ThRedCury_3DHR_cmykAt this year's Summer Fancy Food Show, Saffron Road, the packaged food brand of American Halal Co., is expanding its line of single-use Simmer Sauce pouches with the introduction of three new flavors: Harissa, Korean Stir Fry and Thai Red Curry. These new Simmer Sauces are all-natural and support the company's ongoing commitment to providing Non-GMO Project Verified options for consumers. The new Simmer Sauces flavors – which take inspiration from world cuisine – include:

  • Harissa – Made from piri piri, a red pepper from the Sahara, and infused with spices and herbs.

  • Korean Stir Fry – Crafted with hints of pear and a touch of toasted sesame oil, it features Korean gochugaru peppers.

  • Thai Red Curry – This sauce is filled with a marketplace of ingredients – from galangal ginger to kaffir lime– to create a complex flavor.

Unlike glass jars, which are frequently over-heated in production and burn off flavors and natural elements, pouches are hot filled in less time, thus preserving the robust flavors Saffron Road's consumers savor. 06_SR_SimSauc_KorStrFry_3DHR_cmyk logo in a gray background | 06_SR_SimSauc_KorStrFry_3DHR_cmykIn early 2011, Saffron Road recognized the potential of the pouch category, which has since emerged as a billion dollar innovation in the natural consumer channel and currently spans such segments as baby food, beverages, soups and skillet sauces. Furthermore, Saffron Road's single-use Simmer Sauce pouches require 500 gallons less fuel to transport and produce 14 times less landfill material than the typical glass sauce bottle, resulting in a much smaller carbon footprint and more favorable environmental impact. "Addressing market demand remains a top priority for our company, and we know that millennials, who now represent over 80 million American consumers, prefer easy-to-use and easy-to-store pouches as their 'go-to' package," says Adnan Durrani, chief executive officer of American Halal Company, Inc. "Given these emerging trends and Saffron Road's mission of culinary excellence, we are very excited to be a leader in the category and to further champion our goal of bringing ethically and sustainably packaged food options to our consumers."
