Umami is a flavor that is almost often craved, but so difficult to understand, let alone implement into a dish. Many renowned chefs even have difficulty with the umami balance, and must be in search for how to achieve this flavor. One of the ways that the umami factor can be attained in a dish is through the use of preserved lemons, which provide a unique flavor that imitates the umami craving that so many have during meals.
- Preserved Lemons can add strong Middle Eastern and Moroccan flavors to dishes
- Preserved Lemons take three to four weeks to cure, but will last a long time after preparation
- All that is required to prepare the dish are mason jars, salt, and the lemons
“A seemingly ordinary pasta dish suddenly became extraordinary with the addition of one simple ingredient.”

In the latest annual study of menu price inflation, MCA, found menu prices ran at 3% price inflation. Across 111 operators subject to the study, 49% of menu items increased in price with only 3% falling in price.
At the same time the study highlighted that entry prices for restaurants had increased between 4 and 5.5 percent depending on the dish.
With an average 3% exit price of dishes we can imply that operators, subject to cost pressure, are choosing to absorb some of the price rises.
It is anticipated that prices will rise between 2-3% again over the coming year, though the final figure will depend on the state of the consumer economy.
