Fermented foods are finding artisan, regional and chef-driven takes. Their authenticity is rooted in hundreds of years of craft preparation and artisan pride. Regional preparations of fermented foods, like craft pickles and small-batch whiskey, are being elevated in the preferences of consumers looking for artisan foods. In addition to growing artisan appreciation of these foods, more consumers are preferring foods that contain ingredients geared toward wellness. The probiotic goodness of some of these foods, such as kimchi, lactic-acid fermented craft pickles and miso, are appealing to those looking to boost digestive health. Propelled by culinary interest in umami flavor, also known as the fifth taste, fish sauce and dried shrimp are seeing larger roles as ingredients in the kitchens of popular restaurants and foodservice operations as they carve their path toward consumer homes.
Packaged Facts’ new report explores seven different foods and beverages that encompass thematic avenues of opportunity for food businesses. Fermented Artisanal Foods: Culinary Trend Tracking Series charts how current lifestyle and demographic shifts open up fresh menu and packaged food opportunities related to foods fermented with care, which extends the potential for innovation deeper into meal, snack and beverage territory.

Roti Bank Hyderabad: A Beacon of Hope and NourishmentRoti Bank
One of the top cities of India, Hyderabad is the capital of Telangana and home to some of the biggest companies. But the other aspect of the city is a huge chunk of population that is even deprived of the food and shelter. There are many people in Hyderabad that are not having access to
Hamdard Laboratories (India), is a Unani pharmaceutical company in India (following the independence of India from Britain, "Hamdard" Unani branches were established in Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) and Pakistan). It was established in 1906 by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed in Delhi, and became
a waqf (non-profitable trust) in 1948. It is associated with Hamdard Foundation, a charitable educational trust.
Hamdard' is a compound word derived from Persian, which combines the words 'hum' (used in the sense of 'companion') and 'dard' (meaning 'pain'). 'Hamdard' thus means 'a companion in pain' and 'sympathizer in suffering'.
The goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him.
They had always maintained that working in old, traditional ways would not be entirely fruitful. A broader outlook was essential for a continued and meaningful existence. their effective team at Hamdard helped the system gain its pride of place and thus they made an entry into an expansive world of discovery and research.
Hamdard Laboratories was founded in 1906 in Delhi by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed and Ansarullah Tabani, a Unani practitioner. The name Hamdard means "companion in suffering" in Urdu language.(itself borrowed from Persian) Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed was born in Pilibhit City UP, India in 1883 to Sheikh Rahim Bakhsh. He is said to have learnt the complete Quran Sharif by heart. He also studied the origin of Urdu and Persian languages. Subsequently, he acquired the highest degree in the unani system of medicine.
Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed got in touch with Hakim Zamal Khan, who had a keen interest in herbs and was famous for identifying medicinal plants. Having consulted with his wife, Abdul Majeed set up a herbal shop at Hauz Qazi in Delhi in 1906 and started to produce herbal medicine there. In 1920 the small herbal shop turned into a full-fledged production house.
Hamdard Foundation was created in 1964 to disburse the profits of the company to promote the interests of the society. All the profits of the company go to the foundation.
After Abdul Majeed's death, his son Hakeem Abdul Hameed took over the administration of Hamdard Laboratories at the age of fourteen.
Even with humble beginnings, the goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him. Unfortunately, he passed away quite early but his wife, Rabia Begum, with the support of her son, Hakeem Abdul Hameed, not only kept the institution in existence but also expanded it. As he grew up, Hakeem Abdul Hameed took on all responsibilities. After helping with his younger brother's upbringing and education, he included him in running the institution. Both brothers Hakeem Abdul Hameed and Hakim Mohammed

competing for millennials’ food
dollars, and data shows that
millennials are willing to spend
more of these dollars on high-
quality beef.
But how exactly do millennials
determine quality? And how can
operators define quality in a way
that differentiates themselves,
drives loyalty and generates
sales?
The following insights will help
operators transform research into
words to convey quality to guests
and ensure they feel good about
the beef served in foodservice.
3. Beef’s taste and experiential attributes are
the highest indicators of quality
The top words that indicate high-quality beef
to millennials:

10%
10%
4%
How the cattle are
fed
How the beef is
cooked or prepared
How the cattle are
raised
How the beef is
distributed

purchased
5. There are many ways to tell beef’s story
on the menu
How your beef is selected
How it’s prepared
How it’s cooked
Where it comes from
Who it comes from
How it is raised
7. Tender, fresh and juicy
are the terms that most
indicate quality to your
guests
Consumers associate
these descriptions with
beef more so than
other proteins
Convey quality by
including these
descriptors on the menu
And since origin
resonates too, use the
Beef Checkoff and your
suppliers as resources
to help you tell beef’s
story authentically
and accurately
Turning Insight
into Action
8. Get Specific with Cuts, Preparation Method
and Grades
Beef cuts
millennials view
as being the
highest quality:
Filet Mignon
Sirloin
Ribeye
Tenderloin
Porterhouse
T-Bone
9. Specify the cut
name that
guests already
associate with
high-quality
IN-MARKET
EXAMPLES:
10. References to USDA quality grades imply
quality
Words and phrases that convey quality:
44% of millennials say “Grade”
(e.g. Choice or Prime)
Consumers associate these terms with beef
more than with other proteins
42% of millennials say “USDA-
Inspected”
Even though all beef is USDA-inspected,
Millennials ranked the words ‘100% USDA-
inspected’ as a strong indicator of quality
11. Call out USDA
quality grades on
the menu to drive
orders with guests
looking for a
quality, satisfying
meal
IN-MARKET EXAMPLE:
12. Medium Rare and Medium Well are the
highest quality degrees of doneness
13. When it comes to beef, sensory sells
WOOD-FIRED GRILLED SEARED
Let the powerful experiential qualities of beef
make the sale for you

name, doneness and
preparation method
enhances millennial
perception of quality

beef’s taste and smell
on the menu

restaurant’s culinary
expertise and
practices, and beef’s
unique sensory
qualities to create
anticipation for your
guests
16. Make Beef Memorable
Phrases like ‘cooked to order’, ‘chef selected’, ‘cooked to perfection’,
‘in-house’ and ‘hand-trimmed’ add consumer anticipation that the beef
was expertly prepared – adding incentive to order
18. Consumers are more apt to choose beef over other
proteins if they get confirmation that beef is a healthy, tasty
choice from trusted sources
Reassure consumers of beef’s role in a
healthy diet
19. Respond to
consumer demand
for lighter fare,
pairing a sensible
portion of beef
with fresh veggies
and whole grains
IN-MARKET EXAMPLES:
A USDA select, 8 oz seasoned sirloin steak
cooked to perfection. Served with whole
grain rice and steamed zucchini & squash
20. Turning Insight
into Action
Communicate the care
you took while
selecting and
preparing the beef on
your menu
Give guests
background information
on hand-selection,
hand-made and chef-
specific instructions
to signal quality
Menu lean cuts that
perform well in
foodservice – like
Sirloin and Tenderloin –
along with the high-
quality indicators
21. Satisfaction means living up to
expectations. Create and then live up to
consumers expectations.
Create anticipation for your guests.
Cook to their preference and menu
fresh, juicy and delicious beef.
Freshness can be tasted, so be
transparent with guests about
preparation, and communicating beef’s
strong quality associations is the best
way to indicate quality.
