32. Fruit Purée: Chef Michael Laiskonis & Boiron

Fruit purees are often a staple in restaurant kitchens, especially among pastry chefs and mixologists. Because fresh fruits are seasonal, frozen fruit purees procure that fruit when it is the ripest at its peak season so chefs can have a consistent color, flavor and texture to use that ingredient in various pastry applications or cocktails. Acclaimed pastry chef Michael Laiskonis reveals the value of fruit purees in professional kitchens, and why it is also introduced to chefs early on in culinary schools. Boiron is among the highest quality of frozen fruit purees on the market, with a strong fine food product for nearly four generations. President Alan Boiron shares the history of the freshness of Boiron purees and what's ahead for the future.Follow @mlaiskonis @les_vergers_boiron @wherechefesshop @ingredientinsidersIn partnership with The Chefs' Warehouse, a specialty food distributor that has been purveying high-quality artisan ingredients to chefs for over 30 years @wherechefsshop https://www.chefswarehouse.com/Produced by Haynow Media @haynowmedia http://haynowmedia.com
