12 HAWAII RENOVATION FEBRUARY 12, 2023
TRENDS SHAPING
HOME COOKING THIS YEAR
Today’s chefs and home cooks alike are seeking more meaningful food experiences, with smart, intuitive technology that’s high-performing and saves time. Leading brands are changing the way culinary enthusiasts source and prepare their food, emphasizing a height- ened level of respect for all ingredients throughout the process. The result? Deli- cious food and healthier lifestyles. Here are four trends driving the evolution of home cooking:
FARM FRESH, LOCALLY SOURCED FOOD
More than ever, home cooks strive to use fresh, locally grown or raised organic products, both in the interests of sustain- ability and to achieve the best tasting, most nutritious dishes. While some at- home chefs grow their own produce, oth- ers turn to sources like farmer’s markets
and community-supported agriculture for thefreshestingredientsinanefforttocon- sume less processed food. Luxury kitchen
appliance brands are starting to recognize this and educate consumers on how to stay “true to food.” For instance, Signa-
ture Kitchen Suite is producing short films that highlight food experts around the country who can help guide others to get the best out of everything we cook.
Food journalist, author, educator and True to Food film host Mark Bittman says, “Cooking with consciousness is a lifestyle philosophy I live by. It gets peo- ple thinking about the food they’re con- suming, where it’s sourced and how it’s prepared. That’s why I believe so strongly in the True to Food mission.”
Creativity, efficiency and sustainabil- ity are keys to today’s kitchen, according to Bittman, who led a panel discussion of culinary and wine experts to amplify the True to Food conversation at the new Signature Kitchen Suite “Experience and Design Center” in the heart of culinary- centric Napa Valley, California.
