Organic food supplier Biona has announced the launch of a new organic Ginger and Turmeric paste which will be available to retailers from March onwards, with an RSP of £3.19.
Catering to both convenience and wellness trends, the ready-to-use paste gives consumers no need to peel or chop, so simplifying their meal prep for dishes like Indian- or Malaysian-inspired curries.
Immune-fortifying foods like ginger and turmeric are currently in high demand. Ginger can play a part in aiding digestion, reducing inflammation and improving blood sugar levels. Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant which protects the body’s cells from damage, as well providing other benefits such as lowering cholesterol.
Carmen Ferguson, Brand Manager at Biona’s parent company Windmill Organics, commented: “With recent data from Nielsen once again confirming the positive growth trajectory for organic food sales, which are now outperforming non-organic, we’re excited to bring another sought-after and healthy organic option to market.
“Scratch cooking continues to grow in popularity, and particularly South-East Asian-inspired scratch cooking, so we expect this new launch to be well-received by consumers.”
