Demand for sustainable, organic, and plant-based alternatives is growing in the catering sector as organizations strive to meet Green Dealcommitments. This is also the case for the Province of South Holland, which is increasingly focused on offering healthy, plant-based options in its catering services. As a sales partner for various organic brands, Hanze Verkoop plays a key role in this, notably with the innovative Fervena Briesandwich.
The Fervena Brie Sandwich: A Sustainable and Flavorful Alternative
The Fervena Brie sandwich, made from fermented cashews, is a popular example of an organic lunch option. The combination of plant-based brie, grilled vegetables, and fresh bread aligns perfectly with Green Deal objectives. "The rich flavor of Fervena appeals especially to vegans and flexitarians," says Sandor Zaalberg, sous-chef at the Province of South Holland.
Collaboration with Local and Organic Suppliers
Hanze Verkoop works with the Province to make the menu not only more sustainable but also more delicious. Head chef André Mounier explains: "We choose products that are both sustainable and flavorful. This partnership strengthens our commitment to responsible catering." The menu features a mix of vegetarian and vegan dishes, with a weekly focus on plant-based meals using ingredients from their own vegetable garden.
The Future of Sustainable Catering
Plant-based and organic options are gaining popularity. Guests increasingly appreciate responsible choices, and the Province is responding with innovative and tasty dishes. "It is a challenge to satisfy everyone, but the positive feedback confirms that these plant-based alternatives are the right choice," says Zaalberg.
