Long known for their grilled, sautéed, and fire roasted products, Jon-Lin Frozen Foods, Colton, Calif., recently introduced a new line of Smokehouse Roasted vegetables and fruits. The new line combines the convenience of frozen food products with the succulence, flavor depth and appearance of fresh roasted fruits, vegetables and seasonings. “The people that are most intrigued with our products have been chefs, who embrace the possibilities that our value-added vegetables and fruits offer,” states Sanah Boisvert, national accounts manager for the East Coast.
The fresh produce is lightly coated with extra virgin olive oil, which helps trap the smoked flavor notes. The products then are roasted slowly over an open flame to develop an intense, all-natural flavor profile with signature grill marks.
