There’s nothing like a fresh home cooked meal to end the day. Family dinners are no small task, but they’re always worth it! According to FMI’s 2022 Grocery Shoppers Trends Future Outlook, a quarter of Americans eat a home cooked meal seven days a week. That means there’s over 82 million Americans gathering with their families tonight to enjoy a meal they cooked themselves.
People simply love cooking and eating fresh food at home, but there’s one catch: a homemade recipe can never live up to the menu at your favorite restaurant, right?
Most home cooks don’t give themselves enough credit! With a bit of confidence and the best fresh ingredients, you can also create a top-class dining experience right in the comfort of your own home.
That’s where the Craft House Collection® from Pure Flavor® comes in: premium cooking ingredients to ignite your creativity in the kitchen. This is a carefully selected collection of some of the world’s best greenhouse grown ingredients crafted by generations and grown for the chef in you.
