IQF PASTA - SHORT VS LONG GOODS
Joe Viviano, a Philadelphia Macaroni Sales Rep for over 10 years, knows the long and short of his IQF pasta.
Joe tells his industrial customers they can save money buying IQF pasta already cooked and cut to fit their applications.
"Most IQF Long goods come in a nest and are shipped from Europe. Philadelphia Macaroni offers IQF long goods cut to 3" pieces. This size is perfect for frozen bag entrees, food service, refrigerated salads, and especially Asain style frozen bags requiring Lo-Mein type noodles," Joe says.
Give Joe a call at (215) 925-3339 or shoot him an email with your pasta questions. His industrial knowledge will help save you development time and money! |
