Major Unveils New & Improved Allergen Friendly Stock Pastes

Committed to setting the highest standards across their product range, Major is delighted to unveil their new and improved Chicken Stock Paste and Vegetable Stock Paste, delivering close to scratch made flavour.

Crafted by chefs for chefs, these enhanced recipes are made using the highest-quality ingredients, contain no declarable allergens, and are the go-to solution for busy professional chefs and caterers who demand all the comforts and qualities of a freshly made stock – without the hassle!

Now boasting even more flavour, Major’s Chicken Stock Paste has been crafted with a high meat content using only the best chicken meat, offering chefs a convenient way to create authentic tasting dishes with minimal prep and improved nutrition. Both the Chicken Stock Paste and Vegetable Stock Paste are now made with a shorter ingredients list with no compromise on flavour and can be added at any stage of the cooking process.

With 6 stock pastes in the Major range, including the ever-popular Beef Stock Paste that delivers full-bodied flavour that chefs rely on, chefs and caterers are guaranteed a versatile and reliable base for a wide range of dishes – from soups and sauces to casseroles and risottos - all with consistent, exceptional flavour in every spoonful.

Paul Saunders, Marketing Manager at Major, comments: “Major remains committed to setting the highest standards across our product range and supporting professional chefs in delivering nutritionally outstanding food. That’s why we regularly review our portfolio to find opportunities for improvement. Our Product Improvement and Development Plan allows us to do just that. With our team of dedicated development chefs, we can ensure that every product is best in class.

“Our new and improved Chicken Stock Paste and Vegetable Stock Paste join our delicious Beef Stock Paste in this range and are the latest products in Major’s extensive portfolio that has been developed to deliver powerful flavours, with greater nutritional value - using minimal ingredients and a cleaner label”.

Capable of making up to 50L of fresh-tasting stock, Major’s Chicken, Vegetable and Beef Stock Pastes are available in 1KG resealable tub for greater shelf life, and can be used for gravies and sauces as well as several popular menu items including casseroles, risottos and chicken dishes.

The new and improved recipes are gluten and nut free, free from artificial additives, colours and preservatives, and adhere to the 2024 FSA salt guidelines. What’s more, for added reassurance, just like all Major products, the Chicken Stock Paste and Vegetable Stock Paste are clearly labelled, so chefs can be sure that they’re reaching for products to create their dishes that are allergen safe.
