For the past 50 years the Bristol-based company has been sourcing top quality ingredients from across the globe to create a whole range of products from herbs and spices to exotic Thai curry pastes, Thai fish sauce and coconut milk which are loved by both professionals and home cooks alike.
Now The Bart Ingredients Company® is introducing Repertoire, a new range of products designed specifically for professional chefs.
To celebrate the launch of the exciting new range, Roux Scholarship Winner and Head Chef at Hattusa Restaurant, Paul O’Neill took time out of his busy kitchen at Berwick Lodge (Bristol) to spend a day in the development kitchen at Bart Ingredients headquarters!
Paul launched his new restaurant at Berwick Lodge two weeks ago and has incorporated the Repertoire range to craft his delicious menu at Hattusa, which is going down a storm with guests.
Delicious dishes cooked by Paul in the Bart Ingredients development kitchen included a starter of pulled pork on spiced flatbreads using Repertoire BBQ Blend, Repertoire Smoked Paprika and Repertoire Cajun Blend.
Tandoori spiced monkfish using Repertoire Tandoori Masala Spice Blend and Repertoire Aromatic Thai Spice Blend, for the main course.
Dessert was a fabulous Israeli couscous, roasted pineapple and maple and cinnamon popcorn topped with orange sorbet, using Repertoire Ground Cinnamon and Repertoire Cardamom Pods.
Chef Paul O’Neill was really impressed by the quality and diversity of the Repertoire ingredients range and said:
“95% of great cooking is great ingredients. I am a firm believer in sourcing the best ingredients for my menu and it is great to have such a fantastic producer on my doorstep in Bristol. The Repertoire range is a welcome addition to my larder, I’ll definitely be using it!”
David Collard, CEO of Bart Ingredients Company said: “We are very excited to be introducing Repertoire to our already extensive range of products. Having Paul cook with them in our development kitchen was the perfect beginning for this range as it brought these wonderful ingredients to life by creating such amazing dishes.
“All of the ingredients are chosen for their exceptional quality and blended at our premises in Bristol according to authentic recipes.”
“The range includes herbs and spices from basil to turmeric, but we also have a range of seasonings inspired by cuisines around the world including Fajita, Aromatic Thai and Ras el Hanout.”
The Repertoire range is available now from Ritter Courivaud.
