Deano’s Jalapeno Chips Adds Vermont Spice
to Texas’ Central Market Food Stores
June, 2012.
Deano’s Jalapeno Chips, a 2010 / 2011 Winner at the
ZestFest ‘Fiery Food Challenge’ in Irving, TX. are quickly becoming
known in far reaching parts of the U.S.—including some of the largest cities in
Texas.
Central Market, a
chain of nine upscale specialty food stores has attracted national
attention for its innovative grocery experience that brings a “must-have”
quality-of-life enhancement for food lovers.
Its procurement team literally travels the world to bring its customers
unmatched freshness, quality, variety and value. From fresh organic produce to local farm-raised beef, they go
straight to the source to bring its customers some of the finest foods the
world have to offer—some never before offered in Texas.
Unique finds like the “Jalapeno
Chip” that was inspired at the Cactus Café in Stowe, VT by chef owner Doehne
(aka Deano) Duckworth. The inspiration
came to Duckworth when he realized that potato chip manufacturers were
attempting to replicate the jalapeno’s unique flavor—instead of using real
jalapenos.
Deano’s potato-free chips caught the attention
of Central Market because they are created only from fresh jalapenos shipped in
daily from the US and Mexico. They are
kettle-cooked in small batches, sliced paper thin, deep fried to a spicy crisp
and then given a coating of sharp cheddar, ranch flavoring or sea salt. Finally,
the spicy treats are packaged in re-sealable bags, ensuring restaurant quality
flavor.
And, although packed with flavor—and
late-hitting medium heat—the chips contain no hydrogenated
partially-hydrogenated oils, trans fats or cholesterol. Plus, they are gluten free.
“We are proud to have been selected by
Central Market,” says Chef Duckworth.
“We have always known that our product was a good fit for gourmet and
specialty retailers, up-scale grocery, gift retailers and preferred retailers
nationwide. Now discerning buyers, like
Central Market of Texas, agree.”
In addition to a delicious, healthy snack
food sold in upscale markets, the chips are frequently purchases by chefs and
cooking enthusiasts to liven up soups, salads, dips, sandwiches, casseroles,
and as a coating for baked chicken and salmon. Shared recipes are available at www.deanosjalapenos.com/recipes.
