Green Wednesday with RG-350


Summer is here

A high-tempo winter and spring, with many trade fairs, is coming to an end. During this period we have had the opportunity to meet many customers and users at fairs and exhibitions in Stockholm. Warsaw, Chicago, Helsinki, Hamburg, New Delhi and Aahar.

Unfortunately, the ash cloud from the eruption of Eyjafjallajökulls prevented us from attending FHA 2010 in Singapore. Our stand was in place but we were unable to get there. We are not going to be put off by this setback, however, and will be visiting many of our customers in the area during the summer.

I would like to wish you all a pleasant summer and look forward to an equally high-tempo autumn.

Yours sincerely,
Jan Sigurdh,
Managing Director

Kevinge School in Stockholm has about 500 pupils in grades up to the sixth.

At Kevinge School in Stockholm, food is prepared for a large number of children. The school kitchen has six employees who prepare almost 1,000 portions a day. About 500 portions are served in the school dining room and the rest are delivered to two other schools and a nursery school elsewhere in the county.

Maria Geidnert, matron of the kitchen, has worked at Kevinge for 12 years. She says most of the meals are prepared from start in the kitchen. The focus is on organic and local produce wherever possible.

“For some time we have had two HALLDE vegetable preparation machines but one of them ‘walked’. When we bought a new one, we went for higher capacity by choosing the RG-350. It is fast and easy to operate,” Maria told us.

The RG-350 is used daily for slicing, grating and dicing vegetables for the salad buffet, soups and casseroles. For example, we slice celery and grate carrots to enhance the flavour of the Bolognese sauce, which is now a favourite among the children.

“We have introduced ‘Green Wednesday’ which means we only serve vegetarian food, preferably also organic. The RG-350

really comes in handy on these days, for tasks like cutting potatoes for potato soup. A popular dish is Chili Sin Carne, in which minced meat is replaced by Quorn,” says Maria.

The RG-350 is one of HALLDE’s most powerful and efficient vegetable preparation machines. It offers a choice of two feeders – manual or feed hopper. Kevinge School has both alternatives and seven of the cutting tools available.

Positive attitude towards investment revealed by Gastro Nord

Gastro Nord 20–23 April, a trade fair held at Älvsjö in Sweden every second year, gave very positive indications within the private and the public sectors, HALLDE’s participation was highly successful and it is clear that more positive times are ahead.

Participation in fairs gives us a golden opportunity to show our complete range of vegetable preparation machines, vertical cutter blenders and blender mixers. An understanding of customer needs is vital if we are to offer equipment that meets the demands and requirements of each individual user. Having all our machines to hand makes it easier for us to put them through their paces, and to inform and inspire existing and potential customers.

Potato and leek soup


This soup can be served cold as the ideal dish for a hot summer’s day or as a warm dish for the cooler seasons.

Do the following:

Peel the potatoes and cut them with a 10 mm fine cut slicer in your HALLDE vegetable preparation machine. Peel and chop the yellow onion. Rinse and thinly slice the leek. A HALLDE vegetable preparation machine is ideal for cutting the onions.

Fry the potatoes, onions and leek in butter without browning them. Add stock and allow to boil with the lid on for about 5 minutes or until the potatoes are soft.

Pour all the ingredients into a HALLDE blender mixer/vertical cutter and mix until you have a smooth purée. Pour the mix back into the saucepan, bring to the boil and add the cream. If you intend to serve the soup cold then you should allow the purée to cool before adding the cream. Add salt and pepper to taste; garnish with finely chopped chives or leek.

 


 

Ingredients:

for 10 persons

8–10 medium size potatoes
3 leeks
2 yellow onions
2 teaspoons of butter
2 litres chicken stock
4 dl whipped cream
2 teaspoons salt
White pepper, freshly ground
A bunch of chives

 



This is a HALLDE recipe.
