We recommend that any recipe selected for use in your district be tested in your kitchens before adding it to your menu. Recipe testing ensures that the methods and yields are compatible when prepared with your equipment. Since seasonings are particularly affected by scaling recipes, we highly recommend taste testing as you adjust quantities.

Menu Development

When we change from ready-to-heat foods to fresh foods in the context of menu planning, letting go of prior presumptions is important. Determining the amount of choices and how many per each age group are examples of menu planning challenges. Efficient, fiscally sustainable scratch-cooking programs are reducing choices in favor of fresh flavors.

Management

Management is a general term for all of the areas we include here: fiscal, human resources, facilities, assessment, and wellness policies. In order for a district’s food service department to be successful, the director has to be adept in a vast array of subjects.

Procurement

Procurement is one of the most complex processes that happen within our food service departments. In the event of shifting a program from using processed, ready-to-heat foods to scratch cooked recipes, many processes change.
