What does "Real cooking" mean in a ready meal

Not all ready meals are made in the same way.

For us, convenience begins after the cooking is done — not instead of cooking.

We follow many of the same steps you would expect in a restaurant kitchen. We sauté ingredients to develop flavor. We prepare our own broths. We cook sauces, use wine where the recipe calls for it, and choose extra virgin olive oil as a fundamental part of our Mediterranean cooking.

There are no shortcuts to building flavor. It comes from ingredients, technique and time — from allowing each stage of a recipe to contribute to the final dish.

Only after the cooking is complete do we turn that food into something convenient: portioning it, carefully packing it and making it ready for you to heat and enjoy in just a few minutes.

That is what Real Cooking means to us.
