Our range of production items includes:
Premium Smoked Salmon
Fresh from Norway and Scotland, our premium smoked salmon for which we are known for is smoked by us in-house. We carefully fillet the salmon by hand before curing it for 24 hours using our special recipe. The next step is to run it under cold water before leaving it to dry for an additional 24 hours. Next, we smoke the fish using natural oak wood before placing onto a wire rack.
It is then left to age for a minimum of 48 hours. Finally, it is sliced by hand and placed in a vacuum package to keep it airtight before placing it into the refrigerator. We then pack in 200g Fresh Express Branded packaging to be sold to retail, or in bigger portions to hotels and restaurants in the UAE.
Cooked Peeled Prawns
Our delicious cooked prawns are one of our best-selling items. They are easy to prepare and come pre-cooked for convenience. Whether added to a salad or next to rice with a butter lemon dressing, our cooked prawns won’t disappoint.
Ready Meals
Our ready meals were originally designed for retail businesses to provide a premium meal option to their customers and a convenient heat and eat experience. There are options to suit all preferences, including vegan, chicken, and fish. Our ready meals provide a homemade feel while being healthy, convenient, and having an elegant touch.
Ready to Cook
Within our ready to cook range, you’ll find options like our marinated chicken, sausages, burger patties, and marinated salmon. We created this range to support operational functions for our customers where kitchens aren’t so well-equipped. Our ready to cook food is easy to heat or simply requires a shorter time to finalize each dish. All our ready to cook food comes as portioned items and are well packaged to preserve quality and facilitate operations.
COOKED FOIE GRAS
Our artisanal cooked foie gras terrines are prepared in a traditional French method giving you something to add to a high-end menu. Perfect for fine dining restaurants in the UAE.
